The threats to human rights posed by non-state actors are of increasing concern. Human rights activists increasingly address the activity of multinational corporations, the policies of international organizations such as the World Bank and the World Trade Organization, and international crimes committed by entities such as armed opposition groups and terrorists. This book presents an approach to human rights that goes beyond the traditional focus on states and outlines the human rights obligations of non-state actors. Furthermore, it addresses some of the ways in which these entities can be held legally accountable for their actions in various jurisdictions.The political debate concerning the appropriateness of expanding human rights scrutiny to non-state actors is discussed and dissected. For some, extending human rights into these spheres trivializes human rights and allows abusive governments to distract us from ongoing violations. For others such an extension is essential if human rights are properly to address the current concerns of women and workers. The main focus of the book, however, is on the legal obligations of non-state actors. The book discusses how developments in the fields of international responsibility and international criminal law have implications for building a framework for the human rights obligations of non-state actors in international law. In turn these international developments have drawn on the changing ways in which human rights are implemented in national law. A selection of national jurisdictions, including the United States, South Africa and the United Kingdom are examined with regard to the application of human rights law to non-state actors. The book's final part includes suggestions with regard to understanding the parameters of the human rights obligations of non-state actors. Key to understanding the legal obligations of non-state actors are concepts such as dignity and democracy. While neither concept can unravel the dilemmas involved in the application of human rights law to non-state actors, a better understanding of the tensions surrounding these concepts can help us to understand what is at stake.

La médiation n'est pas une mode ; c'est une loi et une réalité qui se développe, après l'Amérique, en France et en Europe, dans tous les domaines du droit, dans tous les secteurs de la vie économique et sociale. Cet ouvrage est un outil au service de tous les acteurs de la médiation : avocats, magistrats, juristes, élus, particuliers, entreprises, syndicats, associations et, bien sûr, médiateurs issus de toutes les professions. Dix chapitres sont consacrés à dix domaines essentiels : la médiation : esprit, méthodes et pratique ; les acteurs de la médiation et leur rôle ; médiation conventionnelle, clause de médiation et accord de médiation ; la médiation juridique : régime juridique, principes et mise en œuvre ; les médiations de secteur public et de société, la médiation pénale ; la médiation familiale ; trois chapitres sur les médiations du monde économique : droit social, vie de l'entreprise et médiations commerciales. Chaque chapitre se veut claire, complet, pratique et comporte : une étude de fond, des entretiens avec des praticiens expérimentés, des cas pratiques analysés et commentés.

La domanda è: che cos'è la giustizia? Ad essa, spiega Barry, sono state date due risposte diverse. La prima è che la giustizia nasce dal vantaggio che ciascuno ricava dalle limitazioni al perseguimento degli interessi privati, di modo che ognuno abbia un interesse ad aderirvi. L'altra concezione riconnette l'idea di giustizia a quella di imparzialità. Il motivo per far propri principi di giustizia non sta nell'interesse ma nel desiderio di raggiungere con gli altri un accordo in termini ragionevoli.
