Guide to the "travaux Préparatoires" of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights by Marc J. Bossuyt Pdf

Homosexuality: A European Community Issue is a groundbreaking study of the situation of lesbians & gay men in the European Community & how this will be affected by the evolution of the EC into the European Union. It provides a cogent analysis of the social, legal & economic discrimination against homosexual men & women, their organisations & businesses. Twelve authors from different academic backgrounds investigate if, where, & how the European Community institutions are competent to combat discrimination against lesbians & gay men. The authors deal extensively with many policy areas in which the EC plays a prominent role, such as sex equality, free movement of persons, goods & services, employment & family policy. Homosexuality: A European Community Issue is the first comprehensive study into this rapidly developing area of policy making. This eminently readable volume will serve as an indispensable reference book for academics, activists & policy makers for many years to come. An index of relevant legislation, case-law & extensive cross-referencing guarantee it will be of great practical use to anyone interested in lesbian & gay rights in the European Community.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights by William A. Schabas Pdf

A collection of United Nations documents associated with the drafting of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, these volumes facilitate research into the scope of, meaning of and intent behind the instrument's provisions. It permits an examination of the various drafts of what became the thirty articles of the Declaration, including one of the earliest documents – a compilation of human rights provisions from national constitutions, organised thematically. The documents are organised chronologically and thorough thematic indexing facilitates research into the origins of specific rights and norms. It is also annotated in order to provide information relating to names, places, events and concepts that might have been familiar in the late 1940s but are today more obscure.
