[en] THE EVOLUTION OF EXTRA-CONVENTIONAL MECHANISMS OF CONTROL IN THE COMMISSION ON HUMAN RIGHTS: THE CASE OF THE WORKING GROUP ON ARBITRARY DETENTION / [pt] A EVOLUÇÃO DOS MECANISMOS EXTRACONVENCIONAIS DE CONTROLE NA COMISSÃO DE DIREITOS HUMANOS: O CASO DO GRUPO DE TRABALHO SOBRE DETENÇÕES ARBITRÁRIAS

PAULO AFONSO MONTEIRO VELASCO JUNIOR 30 September 2004 (has links)
[pt] Esta dissertação destaca o papel do Grupo de Trabalho Sobre Detenções Arbitrárias, como prova da evolução dos mecanismos de controle no plano da Comissão de Direitos Humanos. Os mecanismos extraconvencionais de proteção colocados à disposição da Comissão de Direitos Humanos sofreram marcante evolução ao longo do tempo. Nessa linha evolutiva ganham destaque os procedimentos temáticos, dentre os quais sobressai o Grupo de Trabalho Sobre Detenções Arbitrárias, criado em 1991. Este grupo centra-se na investigação do caráter arbitrário das detenções impostas a pessoas determinadas, podendo atuar em qualquer país membro das Nações Unidas, independentemente da adesão a tratados ou convenções. Caracteriza-se, ainda, por agir à margem de pressões políticas, embasando-se apenas na expertise de seus cinco membros-especialistas para emitir suas opiniões. Dado o caráter objetivo e não-seletivo de sua atuação e considerada a sua capacidade de agir na proteção efetiva de indivíduos específicos, o Grupo Sobre Detenções Arbitrárias constitui um valioso instrumento de investigação e controle nas mãos da Comissão. / [en] This dissertation highlights the role of the Working Group on Arbitrary Detention, as an evidence of the evolution of the mechanisms of control at the level of the Commission on Human Rights. Throughout time, extra-conventional mechanisms at the disposal of the Commission on Human Rights have undergone a remarkable evolution. In this context, thematic mechanisms gathered momentum, among which the Working Group on Arbitrary Detention -created in 1991- stands out. This group focuses on the investigation of the arbitrary character of detentions imposed on specific individuals, applying to any member of the United Nations, even those that are not party to treaties or conventions. It acts, as well, protected from political pressures, only based on the expertise of its five expert-members to present its opinions. Given the objectivity and non-selectivity of its performance and considering its capacity of effectively protecting specific individuals, the Working Group on Arbitrary Detention represents a worthy instrument of investigation and control in the hands of the Commission.

Dipoma thesis Specifics of human rights organizations in Czech Republic, Austria and Slovakia focuses on human rights organizations in three neighbouring countries. Organisations are assessed along three basic dimensions, structure, activities and relationship to their environment. The goal of the paper is to describe and compare these organisations in their national context and to determine whether there are any significant specifics in this aspect between the countries. To achieve the goal, comparative analysis was used based on analysis of secondary documents and interviews with representatives of organisations. Findings and outcomes summary are placed in the last part of the paper.
