In this book of "Non state actors and human rights" which is published in 2005 by Oxford
University is essential reading for anyone interested in the fast-moving developments related

the "Collected Courses of the Academy of uropean Law" series, addresses
the international entities cast together as " non-state actors" and their
respective roles and potential for implementing human rights. Edited by the
redoubtable Philip Alston, the collected essays are deta iled and thoughtful,
and provide an excellent overview of an under-theorised a rea within
international law_ The volume is logically organi ed into three pa rts.

In this Book The writers explain the current approaches against human
trafficking, providing the reader with evidence as to how these methods
are not properly effective as responding to, treating, and preventing
victims of human trafficking. For instance, the nation's current political
view is focused on immigration and keeping danger from entering our
country, overlooking domestic issues and neglecting certain victim
populations. Whereas the proposed approach of ensuring a general
blanket of human rights would treat all victims as equals, providing them
with the resources and rights to protect themselves the authors follow up
with information on how their suggested approaches would be more
successful. Thus, identifying a problem and providing a solution

In this article the author details the objections that have arisen to accepting this legally
binding international instrument, which presupposes indivisible universal civil, political,
economic, social, and cultural rights, and gives children special protection due to their
vulnerability.

This book examines the creation and formative years of the United Nations Human Rights
Council and assesses the extent to which the Council has fulfilled its mandate. International
law and theories of international relations are used to examine the Council and its functions.
Council sessions, procedures and mechanisms are analysed in-depth, with particular
consideration given to whether the Council has become politicised to the same extent as the
Commission. Whilst remaining aware of the key differences in their functions, Rosa
Freedman compares the work of the Council to that of treaty-based human rights bodies. The
author draws on observations from her attendance at Council proceedings in order to offer a
unique account of how the body works in practice.
