The role of accessibility in a universal web - Henry, Shawn Lawton; Abou-Zahra, Shadi; Brewer, Judy (W4A '14: International Web for All Conference, 2014)
Universal design" is the process of creating products that are usable by people with the widest possible range of abilities, operating within the widest possible range of situations; whereas "accessibility" primarily refers to design for people with disabilities. While the focus of accessibility is disabilities, research and development in accessibility brings benefits to everyone, particularly users with situational limitations, including device limitations and environmental limitations. Awareness and understanding of the benefits of web accessibility to users without disabilities is growing in some areas with the rapid increase of web-enabled devices such as mobile phones, tablets, televisions, and more; with the increasing focus on the growing number of older web users; and with wider web reach in areas with high incidence of low literacy, low bandwidth, older technology, etc. Although there is significant overlap between designing for accessibility and designing for situational limitations, addressing one set of needs does not necessarily provide sufficient solutions for other needs. Keeping accessibility focused on disabilities encourages research and development on meeting the specific needs of people with disabilities. This communications paper explains the importance of "accessibility" continuing to focus on people with disabilities, while further integrating accessibility with web design, development, and research in other areas, including those covered under universal design and design for all. It also describes how the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) are working to address accessibility and related user needs throughout the technologies of the Web, and invites all interested parties to participate in research and development to further integrate accessibility for people with disabilities in ways that benefit all.

From the forerunners of document collection to the trial of Klaus Barbie and beyond: the transitional justice journey of the Izieu telegram - Lühe, Ulrike; Ledauphin, Romain (The International Journal of Human Rights, 2020)
This article analyses the journey of the so-called Izieu telegram–atelegram sent by Nazi perpetrator Klaus Barbie to report the raidof a Jewish children’s home in France to his superiors–from itscreation to its use in multiple transitional justice mechanisms,including an international military tribunal, domestic trials inFrance, and various memorialisation projects. In doing so weapply the concepts of activation and the records continuumapproach, both borrowed from archival studies scholarship, toanalyse how an individual record becomes continuouslyrecontextualised through its use in transitional justice processesand in the process contributes to those same processes. Weconclude by highlighting both the benefits of bringing archivalconcepts into dialogue with transitional justice scholarship andpractice, and the tensions inherent in that endeavour.

¿Qué es la diligencia debida? - Belfiore, Mélanie (Panorama, 2015)
Por: Mélanie Belfiore Ginebra, 16 de noviembre.- Esta fue la pregunta que respondieron los oradores que participaron en el panel que tuvo lugar esta mañana en el marco del cuarto Foro de Naciones Unidas sobre empresas y derechos humanos. Los expertos definieron la diligencia debida como el proceso continuo de monitoreo y prevención de los efectos negativos de las actividades de las empresas sobre los derechos humanos. Las reuniones que transcurren entre hoy y el miércoles en Ginebra tienen como objetivo discutir estrategias para mejorar la implementación de los Principios Rectores sobre empresas y derechos humanos, que son los estándares globales para prevenir que las corporaciones violen los derechos humanos. La diligencia debida se materializa en las empresas en, por lo menos, tres etapas: un control interno efectivo que permita identificar los riesgos de impactar negativamente los derechos humanos, con el fin de controlarlos, y la verificación de la cadena de suministro, es

Los archivos en los Principios Ruggie y otros instrumentos internacionales contra las violaciones de derechos humanos en el mundo de los negocios - Quintana, Antonio González; Palacios, Blanca Bazaco; Serrano, Fernanda Vega; Hernández, Lizbeth Barrientos (Informatio. Revista del Instituto de Información de la Facultad de Información y Comunicación, 2018)
Resumen La impunidad de las violaciones de derechos humanos cometidas en el marco de la actividad empresarial ha sido motivo de preocupación para numerosos organismos internacionales en los últimos decenios. Desde las recomendaciones de la Organización para la Cooperación y el Desarrollo Económicos, organismo pionero en esta preocupación, han sido numerosos los instrumentos internacionales que se han elaborado sobre el tema. Pero son los Principios rectores sobre las empresas y los derechos humanos de las Naciones Unidas, aprobados en 2011 a partir del texto elaborado por el relator John Ruggie, el documento de mayor alcance en cuanto a la necesidad de proteger los derechos humanos también en la actividad productora, comercial o financiera. Los veinticinco principios de este texto se dividen en tres bloques, que corresponden a los tres pilares definidos por John Ruggie como marco conceptual de este documento y que son proteger, respetar y reparar. A pesar de que en ningún momento estos principios o los planes nacionales aprobados para su aplicación mencionan los archivos o la gestión documental, un análisis pormenorizado de ellos nos lleva a ver que tanto la gestión documental como los archivos serán herramientas indispensables para que sean aplicables, al igual que ocurre con el resto de los instrumentos internacionales que analizamos en este artículo.

A Rising Tide: The Implications of Climate Change Inundation for Human Rights and State Sovereignty - Willcox, Susannah (Essex Human Rights Review, 2012)
Climate change has adverse implications for a wide range of human rights. Low-lying, socio-economically disadvantaged small island developing states are among those most vulnerable to climate change harms – including rising sea levels and extreme weather events – which threaten the habitability of their territory and the enjoyment of basic human rights, including the right to self-determination. Customary international law and international human rights law establish extraterritorial obligations with regard to the fulfilment of those economic, social, cultural and collective rights threatened by climate change inundation. However, the international legal framework has been constructed around a system of legal and political governance that is premised on state sovereignty and designed to mediate the vertical relationship between state and citizen. The disappearance of a low-lying small island state without an immediate successor has serious implications for statehood, sovereignty, self-determination and the protection of basic human rights. While this does not necessarily entail the abandonment of the human rights project as a response to climate change harms, it does require a re-conceptualisation of the existing human rights framework. The human rights regime must embrace forward-looking, trans-boundary mechanisms of monitoring and protection that no longer rely on the state as the central domain of moral concern, or risk becoming obsolete.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — A court in Bahrain ordered the country's main Shiite opposition group to be dissolved on Sunday, deepening a crackdown on dissent in the strategically important Western-allied kingdom. The order against al-Wefaq marks one of the sharpest blows yet against civil society activists in the Sunni-ruled island nation, which was rocked by widespread protests led by its Shiite majority demanding political reforms five years ago.

Toward a History of the Term “Anti-Semitism” - Feldman, David (The American Historical Review, 2018)
This essay traces the changing meanings of the term “anti-Semitism” from the late nineteenth century to the present. Focusing on Britain, it demonstrates that anti-Semitism, like any other concept, has a history—but in this case, one that remains largely uncharted. The essay draws a contrast between early usages of the term that regarded anti-Semitism as a specifically modern phenomenon and later meanings that have conceived anti-Semitism as a continuous and deep-seated malaise. Changes in the history of the concept of anti-Semitism were closely bound up with the history of minority rights and with the changing relationship of Jews to states. The foundation of the State of Israel in 1948 was a revolution in the relationship of Jews to state power that also led to radical changes in the meanings of anti-Semitism. Acknowledging the sedimented layers of meaning that lie within the concept of anti-Semitism will help us understand why the term has become so contentious in the present.

Xiyue Wang was arrested nearly a year ago but his confinement only became known Sunday when Iran's judiciary announced his sentence, accusing him of "infiltrating" the country and sending confidential material abroad. The 36-year-old, described by Iranian authorities as holding Chinese and American citizenship, was in Iran doing research for his doctorate in late 19th and early 20th century Eurasian history when he was detained.

The Evolution of International Human Rights: Visions Seen - Lauren, Paul Gordon (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2011)
This widely acclaimed and highly regarded book, used extensively by students, scholars, policymakers, and activists, now appears in a new third edition. Focusing on the theme of visions seen by those who dreamed of what might be, Lauren explores the dramatic transformation of a world patterned by centuries of human rights abuses into a global community that now boldly proclaims that the way governments treat their own people is a matter of international concern-and sets the goal of human rights "for all peoples and all nations." He reveals the truly universal nature of this movement, places contemporary events within their broader historical contexts, and explains the relationship between individual cases and larger issues of human rights with insight. This new edition incorporates material from recently declassified documents and the most recent scholarship relating to the creation of the new Human Rights Council and its Universal Periodic Review, the International Criminal Court, the Responsibility to Protect (R2P), terrorism and torture, the impact of globalization and modern technology, and activists in NGOs devoted to human rights. It provides perceptive assessments of the process of change, the power of visions and visionaries, politics and political will, and the evolving meanings of sovereignty, security, and human rights themselves.

First, Do No Harm: The US Sexually Transmitted Disease Experiments in Guatemala - Rodriguez, Michael A.; García, Robert (American Journal of Public Health, 2013)
Beginning in 1946, the United States government immorally and unethically—and, arguably, illegally—engaged in research experiments in which more than 5000 uninformed and unconsenting Guatemalan people were intentionally infected with bacteria that cause sexually transmitted diseases. Many have been left untreated to the present day., Although US President Barack Obama apologized in 2010, and although the US Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues found the Guatemalan experiments morally wrong, little if anything has been done to compensate the victims and their families., We explore the backdrop for this unethical medical research and violation of human rights and call for steps the United States should take to provide relief and compensation to Guatemala and its people.
