A stunningly original book. The first book ever on preventive human rights strategies. If followed world-wide it can shield millions of people from arbitrary execution, torture, and ill-treatment.

Ambassador Tefera Shiawl,

Previously Chief of the Early-Warning Unit, OCHA;

Chief Executive Officer,

Horn of Africa Stand-by Peacekeeping Operation

This book is a major break-through in the human rights literature. The human rights call to action until now has been for promotion and protection. Henceforth it will be for promotion, prevention and protection. The chapter on national protection systems should be implemented by every country. It is of the greatest importance.

Professor Evance Kalula,

Director, Centre for Law and Development,

University of Cape Town

This book brings together in a superb and original way the preventive human rights strategies in existence today. The chapter on strategies for the prevention of torture should be compulsory reading for everyone interested in eliminating this criminal practice from the world.

Theodoor van Boven,

Professor of International Law Emeritus,

University of Maastricht;

Previously UN Special Rapporteur against Torture;

Previously UN Human Rights Director

Preventive Human Rights Strategies

The prevention of violations of human rights must become the dominant protection strategy of the twenty-first century, nationally, regionally, and globally. This book clearly identifies the need for preventive human rights strategies, maps what exists by way of such strategies at the present time, and offers policy options to deal with the world of the future.

Written by a former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, the book suggests the future lies in strong national protection systems backed up by regional and international organs and an international criminal justice system. The book explores the future of preventive human rights strategies through a wide range of contemporary issues, including:

climate change
pandemics
mass migration
global poverty and pervasive inequality
interstate conflicts
terrorism, including WMD terrorism
gross violations of human rights
financial and economic crises.

We are already in a quite different world in the twenty-first century, and human rights thinking will need to evolve to meet its needs. This important and contemporary volume calls for the modification of current preventive human rights strategies, and is essential reading for all those concerned with the future of international relations and human rights.

Bertrand G. Ramcharan is a Barrister-at-Law of Lincolns Inn and Senior Fellow at the Ralph Bunche Institute for International Studies, CUNY, USA. His publications include Contemporary Human Rights Ideas (2008).

About the Series

The Global Institutions Series is designed to provide readers with comprehensive, accessible, and informative guides to the history, structure, and activities of key international organizations as well as books that deal with topics of key importance in contemporary global governance. Every volume stands on its own as a thorough and insightful treatment of a particular topic, but the series as a whole contributes to a coherent and complementary portrait of the phenomenon of global institutions at the dawn of the millennium.

Books are written by recognized experts, conform to a similar structure, and cover a range of themes and debates common to the series. These areas of shared concern include the general purpose and rationale for organizations, developments over time, membership, structure, decision-making procedures, and key functions. Moreover, current debates are placed in historical perspective alongside informed analysis and critique. Each book also contains an annotated bibliography and guide to electronic information as well as any annexes appropriate to the subject matter at hand.
