Multigenerational Citizenship: The Importance of Recognizing Children as National and International Citizens

Reparations for consistent patterns of historic abuses, including slavery, should be discussed with this ethos and the building of a global community framework in mind. Respect is t…

Children's Access to Adoption Records—State Discretion or an Enforceable International Right
Opening Pandora's Box: Protecting Children Against Torture or Cruel, Inhuman and Degrading Treatment or Punishment
Children are rarely perceived as torture victims, although they may be easier targets. International inertia is compounded as not only torture, but also ‘other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment’ is prohibited. Some of these occur in the private sphere, which traditionalists erroneously assume outside of international human rights law. Children may also be unprotected because they suffer from trauma in different ways from adults.…
