At the beginning of the nineties, there was an expectation within the human rights community that the next decade would be a period of consolidation for the international human rights regime. This did not happen. In fact, the human rights regime underwent dramatic changes in response to new circumstances. We have tried to highlight both the achievements and the challenges ahead in this Manual, the result of a joint project under the auspices of HumanitarianNet, a Thematic Network on Humanitarian Development Studies leaded by the University of Deusto (Bilbao, the Basque Country, Spain), and the European Inter-University Centre for Human Rights and Democratisation (EIUC, Venice, Italy).

The international human rights system remains as dynamic as ever. If at the end of the last century there was a sense that the normative and institutional development of the system had been completed and that the emphasis should shift to issues of implementation, nothing of the sort occurred. Even over the last few years significant changes happened, as this book amply demonstrates. We hope that this Manual makes a contribution to the development of International Human Rights Law and is of interest for those working in the field of promotion and protection of human rights. The book is the result of a joint project under the auspices of HumanitarianNet, a Thematic Network led by the University of Deusto, and the European Inter-University Centre for Human Rights and Democratisation (EIUC, Venice).

The era of technology in which we reside has ushered in a more globalized and connected world.

Defending Human Rights and Democracy in the Era of Globalization is a pivotal resource for the latest research on the effects of a globalized society regarding issues relating to social ethics and civil rights. Highlighting relevant concepts on political autonomy, migration, and asylum, this book is ideally designed for academicians, professionals, practitioners, and upper-level students interested in the ongoing concerns of human rights.

Suele causar extrañeza presentar el estudio del arbitraje deinversiones junto con los derechos humanos; sin embargo, regímenes que en elpasado se veían sin punto de conexión hoy en día deben encontrarse para darrespuesta a nuevas realidades y buscar una armonización necesaria. La actual situación medioambiental y la posición del hombrefrente a ella nos demuestra que el recién reconocido derecho humano al medioambiente sano debe ser integrado con los demás derechos que regulan situacionesque lo afectan o podrán llegar a afectarlo. Entonces, la integracióncon el derecho de inversiones es inevitable. Mantener una visión aislada de los dos regímenes desconoceno solo la evolución del derecho, sino la urgente necesidad de proteger elmedio ambiente y, por ende, el derecho que todo ser humano tiene a gozar deeste de una manera sana. Por tanto, deben hallarse nuevos actores y nuevasformas de protección para lograr un equilibrio entre ambos.
