Previous issue date: 2014-03-14 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The central object of the thesis herein is the Universal Periodic Review (UPR), new human
rights monitoring mechanism created with the United Nations (UN) reform, in 2005. In order
to respond to the selectivity criticisms of the old Comission, which centered its attention
towards specific countries, the UPR constitutes a new tool of universal approach, through
which all UN member states shall apply periodically, without excepcions. The main problem
this research intends to answer relates to the duplicity of obligations gathered by the States,
already overloaded with other monitoring duties. As such, the problem may be reduced to the
following question: is the UPR indeed innovative or merely represents one more formal
obligation to the countries? The hypothesis is that the UPR is a reflection of the natural wear,
as well as the development and remodeling of the traditional monitoring mechanisms, notably
the committees periodic reports, without, otherwise, dispense their value. Furthermore, as an
international law tool, its success depends directly on the States efforts during the review
proceedings. The central author of the thesis is Philip Alston, UN independent expert who
researched the effectiveness of the UN treaty monitoring system. The methodology chosen
reflects a bibliographical and document analysis, through the study of newly written scientific
articles related to the subject, as well as the documents used in the brazilian reviews, in
Geneva. It is structured in three chapters. The first one focuses on the traditional human rights
monitoring tools, in order to provide a general view on the theme. Consequently, the second
chapter is exclusively dedicated to the UPR itself, its innovations, peculiarities and
functioning. Finally, the last one centers on the brazilian performance on the 2008 and 2012
cicles, after a brief analysis of its international and regional historical commitments to human
rights. / O Relatório Periódico Universal (RPU), objeto desta dissertação, é o novo mecanismo de
monitoramento dos direitos humanos, criado a partir da reforma da Organização das Nações
Unidas (ONU), em 2005. Com o objetivo de responder os questionamentos acerca da
seletividade da antiga Comissão, que concentrava atenções tão somente em alguns países, o
RPU constitui ferramenta de avaliação universal, através da qual todos os Estados membros
das Nações Unidas se submetem, sem exceções. A questão central deste trabalho refere-se à
duplicidade de obrigações para os Estados, já sobrecarregados pelos demais mecanismos de
monitoramento onusianos. Dessa forma, o problema reduz-se à seguinte pergunta: seria o
RPU realmente inovador ou representa apenas mais uma obrigação formal para os países?
Parte-se da hipótese que o RPU é fruto do desgaste natural e do aprimoramento dos
mecanismos tradicionais de monitoramento, notadamente dos relatórios periódicos, sem,
contudo, prescindí-los. Ademais, como ferramenta de direito internacional, seu sucesso
depende diretamente do efetivo compromisso estatal durante os procedimentos de revisão. O
marco teórico desta pesquisa é Philip Alston, expert independente das Nações unidas
responsável pela elaboração de estudo acerca da efetividade do monitoramento dos
mecanismos convencionais de direitos humanos. A metodologia utilizada é essencialmente
bibliográfica-documental, baseada em recentes artigos produzidos sobre a temática, bem
como na avaliação dos documentos relativos ao Estado brasileiro utilizados nos debates, em
Genebra. O trabalho estrutura-se em três capítulos. O primeiro foca nas ferramentas
tradicionalmente utilizadas no monitoramento internacional dos direitos humanos,
proporcionando visão geral do tema. Por sua vez, o segundo capítulo dedica-se
exclusivamente ao RPU, suas inovações, peculiaridades e funcionamento. Por fim, o terceiro
capítulo centra-se no desempenho do Brasil nas revisões de 2008 e 2012, após breve análise
do seu histórico de comprometimento internacional e regional.

New architecture for the UN human rights treaties monitoring mechanisms : merging and partitioning the committeesMebrahtu, Simon January 2006 (has links)
"In the past 40 years these various procedures and outputs of the United Nations Human Rights Treaty System (UNHRTS) have gradually become sophisticated, developed and strengthened. It has made contributions to the promotion and protection of human rights. Despite its achievements, however, it also faces serious challenges and weaknesses, which induces some insider commentators to evaluate it as 'a system in crisis' and to criticise the whole system as one that urgently needs 'a complete overhaul'. From time to time, several proposals were made to improve the situation. However, the underlying problems persisted. Thus further and radical calls for re-organisation of the monitoring mechanism of the UNHRTS into a Unified and Standing Treaty Monitoring Body (USTMB) was made very recently. A further call for consolidation was made more explicit subsequently. In March 2006 the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (UNHCHR) has issued a Concept Paper proposing to consolidate the current treaty monitoring bodies (TMBs) into a USTMB in an attempt to address the persistent problems the UNHTRS monitoring mechanism has been facing. A proposal regarded as too radical by many insiders of the UNHRTS. In view of the serious weaknesses of the UNHRTS monitoring mechanism, the initiated reform is a positive step. However, in seeking to introduce reform, and particularly within the UNHRTS, great caution is important not to throw the baby with water in the reform process. There is real concern about squandering, in the name of reform, the progress achieved over the last decades. In order to introduce an effective reform, it is important to be aware of [what] has worked and what has not, and make strategic choices based on these insights. In view of the proposed USTMB as a solution to the weakness of the system, balancing the reform initiative so that it will inherit the positive legacies while redressing the weakness is, therefore, a major contemporary concern." -- Introduction. / Thesis (LLM (Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa)) -- University of Pretoria, 2006. / Prepared under the supervision of Mr. E.Y.

Sexuální vykořisťování a zneužívání páchané příslušníky mírových misí OSN / Sexual Exploitation and Abuse by UN PeacekeepersKrálik, Ján January 2017 (has links)
The thesis provides legal analysis of sexual exploitation and abuse by UN peacekeepers with particular focus on military members of national peacekeeping contingents. It provides brief survey of peacekeeping operations thereby underlying their importance in the contemporary activities of the UN and describing factors that have caused or might led to sexual exploitation and abuse by UN peacekeepers. Furthermore, UN action towards those acts is described and it is also evaluated whether such steps are successful, sufficient and whether more could have been done or what more can be done in the future. A part is also dedicated to international humanitarian law perspective and international human rights law. In this context, the author tries to answer the question if and when the sexual exploitation and abuse by members of national peacekeeping contingents while deployed to a UN peacekeeping mission may constitute war crimes or crimes against humanity and whether there is a role to play by International Criminal Court. In the same vein, issues of extraterritorial application of human rights treaties are discussed. The question of international responsibility is the central topic of this thesis. Apart from individual responsibility of members of national peacekeeping contingents for acts of sexual...
