Transformative Constitutionalism in Latin America
This ground-breaking collection of essays outlines and explains the unique development of Latin American jurisprudence. It introduces the idea of the Ius Constitutionale Commune en America Latina (ICCAL), an original Latin American path of transformative constitutionalism, to an Anglophone audience for the first time. It charts the key developments that have transformed the region and assesses the success of the constitutional projects that followed a period of authoritarian regimes in Latin America. Coined by scholars who have been documenting, conceptualizing, and comparing the development of Latin American public law for more than a decade, the term ICCAL encompasses themes that cross nat...
General Principles for Business and Human Rights in International Law
In General Principles for Business and Human Rights in International Law Ludovica Chiussi Curzi offers an overview of the relevance of general principles of law in the multifaceted discourse on business and human rights. What are the implications of the state duty to protect human rights in good faith and to guarantee victims of corporate human rights violations access to justice? Can general principles of law, such as abuse of rights, due diligence, and estoppel provide a source of obligations for companies that is relevant to human rights protection? Has an autonomous principle on corporate liability developed in international law? These are the questions at the core of this monograph, which seeks the answers in the normative foundations of public international law.

The Routledge Handbook of Intercultural Mediation

Authored by global experts in fields from intercultural communication and conflict resolution to translation studies, literature, political science, and foreign language teaching, chapters trace the history, development, and present state of approaches to intercultural mediation. The sections in this volume show how the concept of intercultural mediation has been constructed among different fields and shaped by its specific applications in an open cycle of influence. The book parses different philosophical conceptions as well as pragmatic approaches, providing ample grounding in the key perspectives on this growing field of discourse. The Routledge Handbook of Intercultural Mediation is a valuable reference for graduate and postgraduate students studying mediation, conflict resolution, intercultural communication, translation, and psychology, as well as for practitioners and researchers in those fields and beyond.
Business and Human Rights
"This book analyses the accountability of European home States for their failure to secure the human rights of victims coming from host States against transnational enterprises. It argues for a reconfiguration of the relationship between multinational enterprises and individuals, both of which have been profoundly changed by globalisation. Enterprises are now supranational entities with numerous affiliates all over the world. Likewise, individuals are increasingly part of a global community. Despite this, the relationship between the two is deregulated. Addressing this lacuna, this study proposes an innovative business and human rights litigation strategy. It illustrates why such a strategy is needed, pointing to the lack of effective legal remedies against European multinationals. The goal is to empower victims that come from developing countries against European States which are failing to hold multinational enterprises accountable for human rights abuses"--

Los gatos pardos
La complejidad de la historia política latinoamericana no admite localismos autorreferentes, hay en ella un desarrollo disímil de acontecimientos y de personas. Por esa razón la mirada cultural-política que da el autor a los protagonistas, situaciones y procesos de finales del siglo XIX, de todo el siglo XX y comienzos del XXI nos permiten entender la muy variada, trágica y mágica realidad latinoamericana, cuyo orden internacional aún no está claramente definido y en el que la trilogía tumoral del caudilismo, el jacobismo y el militarismo impide su afirmación en la modernidad y el progreso.
