O estudo propõe uma reflexão sobre o Direito à Cultura sob a ótica dos Direitos Fundamentais por meio de uma abordagem contextualizada com as formas em que este direito, seja pelo enfoque individual, seja pelo aspecto coletivo, se concretiza e com as atuações estatais que contribuem para tanto em um cenário de prevalência do modo de vida urbano não só nas cidades, mas também em comunidades outrora tidas como rurais, mas que absorvem progressivamente o modo de vida urbano. A Constituição Federal reconhece amplamente os Direitos Culturais, tendo-os como direitos imprescindíveis para a dignidade da pessoa humana em uma vida em sociedade, mas também impondo ao Poder Público que articule as Políticas Públicas proporcionando instrumentos para que as relações sociais desenvolvam-se em um ambiente de respeito à diversidade cultural e de fomento às manifestações culturais, por ver nelas um patrimônio do povo brasileiro e um espaço de exercício da personalidade de cada indivíduo. Para tanto, a dissertação apresenta uma ampla pesquisa sobre a legislação relacionada com o setor e mostra como estas Políticas Públicas podem estimular a Economia da Cultura em prol de um novo modelo de desenvolvimento, mais sustentável do que o paradigma industrial apresenta.

This article examines the current state of tension in the Niger Delta of Nigeria. It locates the current unrest in the continued denial of economic, social and cultural rights to the oil-rich communities in the area. The author argues that this denial happened with the complicity and acquiescence of the international community. The Nigerian government as well as multinational corporations operating in the area have not been responsive to the development needs of the people. The article argues that, although the primary obligation for realising the economic, social and cultural rights of host communities rests on the government, multi-national corporations in developing countries, considering their awesome resources and influence on government policies, should be similarly obligated to respect, promote and protect those rights.

This article explores an opportunity for mutual learning between the fields of human rights law and economic analysis. Specifically it considers how economic techniques might be used to appraise public expenditure in line with international obligations arising from the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights 1966 (ICESCR). Our argument is that such tools do have the potential to contribute to this aim, but that embedding them within government budget processes through “human rights mainstreaming” may prove problematic in practice. We therefore suggest, as part of a broader strategy which includes judicial enforcement, that mainstreaming initiatives and budget analysis can be useful as complementary tools for the full realisation of all human rights.

Human rights based budget analysis projects have emerged at a time when the United Nations has asserted the indivisibility of all human rights and attention is increasingly focused on the role of non-judicial bodies in promoting and protecting human rights. This book seeks to develop the human rights framework for such budget analyses, by exploring the international law obligations of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) in relation to budgetary processes. The book outlines international experiences and comparative practice in relation to economic and social rights budget analysis and budgeting.

The book sets out an ICESCR-based methodology for analysing budget and resource allocations and focuses on the legal obligation imposed on state parties by article 2(1) of ICESCR to progressively realise economic and social rights to 'the maximum of available resources'. Taking Northern Ireland as a key case study, the book demonstrates and promotes the use of a ‘rights-based’ approach in budgetary decision-making.

The book will be relevant to a global audience currently considering how to engage in the budget process from a human rights perspective. It will be of interest to students and researchers of international human rights law and public law, as well as economic and social rights advocacy and lobbying groups.

The human right to water is nowadays more broadly recognised, mainly due to the essential societal function that this resource plays; likewise, because of the present water scarcity is generating conflicts between its different uses. Thus, this right aims at protecting human beings by guaranteeing access to clean water that is essential to satisfy vital human needs. Similarly, access to clean water is an important element to guarantee other rights including the right to life and health. The recognition of the right to water is mainly achieved in two ways: as a new and independent right and as a subordinate or derivative right. Concerning the latter, the right to water can emanate from civil and political rights, such as the right to life; or can be derived from economic, social and cultural rights, including the right to health, the right to an adequate standard of living, and the right to housing. This contribution explores the position of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights regarding the right to water, and analyses whether the Court has recognised the right to water and, if so, in which manner.

Esta pesquisa trata da experiência de realização de um projeto cultural, a partir da análise da dinâmica dos 3P´s da produção cultural. O trabalho apresenta um relato de bastidores desde o planejamento do projeto à sua avaliação, trazendo uma reflexão crítica acerca do fazer da produção cultural e explora questões sobre acesso e cidadania cultural. O projeto analisado foi patrocinado através da Lei Federal de Incentivo à Cultura (Lei Rouanet). O jogo dinâmico do mercado cultural aqui exposto apresenta uma forma de interação entre Proponente, Patrocinador e Público que serve de referência para a compreensão da trajetória de um projeto cultural desde sua criação, passando por sua implementação, até sua finalização. Outro aspecto aqui explorado, apesar de ainda pouco desenvolvido no mercado, trata do estabelecimento de bases para a avaliação de resultados de projetos sócio-culturais.

The Brasilia Declaration, adopted in 2007 at the second Regional Intergovernmental Conference on Ageing in Latin America and the Caribbean: towards a society for all ages and rights-based social protection and ratified in ECLAC resolution 644(XXXII) of 2008, called on participating governments to work towards adopting a international convention regarding the rights of older persons (Article 24). It also established a mandate for a Human Rights Council Special Rapporteur who would be responsible for promoting and protecting the rights of older persons (Article 25).Three meetings were held during the past biennium pursuant to that commitment. The first and second meetings took place, respectively, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (2008) and in Buenos Aires, Argentina (2009). At the third meeting, held in Santiago (Chile), on 5-6 October 2009, participating countries requested the Secretariat of the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America (ECLAC) to prepare "a proposal for a strategy on how to follow up article 24 and 25 of the Brasilia Declaration." This proposal should include the "minimum content necessary in an international convention on the rights of older persons from the Latin American and Caribbean perspective."In response to this request, this document first presents a general overview of existing human rights standards, both at the international and at the regional levels, that are relevant to the promotion and the protection of the rights of older persons. It then provides the arguments that, from a Latin American and Caribbean perspective, justify the adoption of an international convention regarding the rights of older persons, as well as the minimum contents that this convention should include. The document finally presents a proposed strategy to move towards the adoption of an international convention in this realm from a Latin American and Caribbean perspective.
