The paper is an approach to present the category of social rights in the background of entire legal system of the human rights protection. It is particularly dealing with the issue of nature of the 2nd generation of human rights and its significance for society. It starts with a brief presentation of the philosophical (human dignity) and normative roots as well as a short historical view of the human rights’ codification; the established legal terminology (human rights, fundamental rights, individual rights and liberties) and various levels of the legal protection (international – of global or regional nature, supranational and national one). Thereafter it focuses directly on the issue of social rights. Unlike the 1st generation of human rights, they are rather connected with public activity, policy and services (facere) than with autonomy and liberty (non facere). This, in turn, demands appropriate institutional structures and procedures. Social rights are hardly provided – in a binding and effective way – by global or regional international law. Thus, the burden of their protection, guaranty and execution is satisfied by the particular state and depends on its economic and social circumstances. On the other hand – they significance is based on fact that they serve the protection of social security which is the fundamental issue for both – dignity and sense of community.

Resumo: Neste artigo teve-se como objetivo a análise da violação dos direitos humanos dos trabalhadores e o papel dos sistemas regionais de proteção. A metodologia foi o exame da jurisprudência do sistema Interamericano, o sistema Europeu e o sistema Africano dentro de uma perspectiva que buscou a análise a partir da universalidade e indivisibilidade dos direitos humanos, bem como de multifuncionalidade e dupla titularidade dos direitos humanos fundamentais. Por meio da análise dos casos que são direcionados à proteção e direitos trabalhistas, observou-se que os sistemas, ainda, não são harmônicos quanto à jurisprudência trabalhista. Os sistemas Interamericano e Europeu fundamentam suas decisões pelos direitos individuais, usando uma interpretação extensiva, permitindo o entendimento da multifuncionalidade, da dupla titularidade e da interdependência dos direitos. No sistema Africano, direitos civis e sociais foram contemplados num mesmo patamar, mas ainda é preciso aguardar uma postura menos formalista do sistema para que conclusões possam ser tomadas. Espera-se que tais sistemas tenham a capacidade de avançar na proteção mais plena e efetiva dos direitos trabalhistas – condição essencial à própria prevalência da dignidade humana.Palavras-chave: Sistema de proteção de direitos humanos.

The methodology was the examination of the jurisprudence of the Inter-American system, the European system and the African system, from a perspective that sought the analysis from the universality and indivisibility of human rights, as well as multifunctionality and dual ownership of fundamental human rights. Through the analysis of the cases that are directed to the protection and labor rights, it was observed that the systems are still not harmonious regarding labor jurisprudence. The Inter-American and European systems base their decisions on individual rights, using an extensive interpretation, allowing the understanding of multifunctionality, dual ownership and the interdependence of rights. In the African system, civil and social rights were on the same footing, but we still have to wait for a less formalist stance of the system in order to reach conclusions. Such systems are expected to have the potential to advance the fullest and most effective protection of labor rights - an essential condition for the very prevalence of human dignity.Keywords: Human rights protection system.

Conceptions And Interpretations of Human Rights in Europe and Asia: Normative AspectsThe issue of confronting values between civilizations has become very important. It influences not only the level of international politics but also the international normative activity. It is very interesting for the modern international law and its doctrine. The most important factor of causing huge changes in the system of international law is still the international human rights protection and the international humanitarian law which is related to it. It is very difficult to create one catalogue of executive instruments and procedures but it is possible to influence the attitude toward the basic paradigms. The frictions appear from time to time and move to other planes. The West and Asia are still antagonists in the dialogue on the future of the world. The article is a contribution to the intercivilizational dialogue.

International Constitutionalism

AbstractInternational constitutionalism relates to processes of limiting traditionally unrestricted powers of states as ultimate subjects, law-makers and law-enforcers of international law. Human rights occupy a central, but very confusing and confused role in the theorisation of international constitutionalism. If feminist scholars have criticised the inadequacies, shortcomings and gaps of international law of human rights at least since 1991, the doctrine of international law theorising constitutionalisation of international law until now has remained blind to these critiques idealising human rights and often using them as the ultimate legitimating factor. Thus, legitimacy and legality become confused and the distinction between them blurred in the doctrine of international constitutionalism. This in turn creates a danger of failure of the constitutionalists project itself, as it will serve to reinforce existing inadequacies and gaps in human rights protection. To illustrate this argument, I discuss some examples related to the protection of women's and migrants' rights. In order to avoid this dangerous development, I argue that international lawyers theorising international constitutionalism shall adopt an adequate, inclusive notion of legitimacy. In order to develop this adequate understanding of legitimacy, they should first take seriously feminist and other critiques of international human rights law and international law more generally. In the final parts of this article I develop my own more detailed proposals on the future of legitimacy and international constitutionalism. In doing so, I draw on the 'self-correcting learning process' developed in the writings of Jürgen Habermas, 'democracy to come' and more general views on the nature of sovereignty and human rights expressed by Jacques Derrida, as well as Levinasian 'responsibility-to-and-for-the-Other'.

Protection Of Cultural Heritage

This chapter focuses on the practice of deliberate destruction of cultural heritage, which has represented a plague accompanying humanity throughout all phases of its history and has involved many different human communities either as perpetrators or victims. In most instances of deliberate destruction of cultural heritage, the target of perpetrators is not the heritage in itself but, rather, the communities and persons for whom the heritage is of special significance. This reveals a clear discriminatory and persecutory intent against the targeted cultural groups, or even against the international community as a whole. As such, intentional destruction of cultural heritage, in addition of being qualified as a war crime, is actually to be considered as a crime against humanity. Furthermore, it also produces notable implications in terms of human rights protection. Protection of cultural heritage against destruction is today a moral and legal imperative representing one of the priorities of the international community. In this respect, two rules of customary international law exist prohibiting intentional destruction of cultural heritage in time of war and in peacetime.

This article considers the ways in which geo-political and legal concerns materialised in debates over self-determination in the years following decolonisation, and how they impacted on its’ possibilities, objectives and conception. During this period, self-determination was not, as some scholars have argued, a declining norm, but one central to the competing visions of reinventing international law after empire. These varying articulations were largely shaped by the experience of colonialism and its ongoing effects, along with the ideological confrontation between East-West and North-South. One articulation stressed the primacy of political and economic sovereignty, prominently seen in calls for the establishment of a New International Economic Order. The other sought to integrate self-determination into the elevation of democratic governance and individual human rights protection. Examining these alternative formulations of self-determination, underlines the incompleteness of mainstream historical accounts, and may throw light upon continuing anxieties over its current legal status.

Internal Capacity

Abstract In recent years, there has been an increasing amount of research about the implementation of international law. However, there has been almost no empirical research about implementing decisions of international human rights institutions. The decisions of those institutions are usually regarded as soft law, and states do not have a clear legal obligation to implement them. In this article, I bring original empirical data about how and when states implement decisions of the United Nations Human Rights Committee (HRC) in individual communications. I hypothesize that the following factors influence the readiness of states to implement the views of the HRC: (i) the level of democracy and human rights protection in the state; (ii) internal capacity; (iii) strength of civil society; (iv) type of remedy; (v) representation on the HRC; (6) subject matter of the communication. I find that the most important factor for implementing remedies granted by the Committee is the high human rights score of the state. The internal capacity of the state is also significant but to a lesser extent than found in previous studies. Also, I find a certain connection between the state being represented on the HRC and its willingness to implement the remedies.
