Co-sponsorship, note verbale, and association behaviour at the Unga
Between 2007 and 2018, seven resolutions in favour of a universal moratorium on death penalty executions were adopted by the UN General Assembly. This paper provides an analysis of co-sponsorship and the note verbale of dissociation relating to those seven resolutions. Our assumption is that states which plan to vote 'yes' in the plenary will co-sponsor the resolution beforehand. We also presume that states which vote 'no' in the plenary will sig…
Idiosyncratic voting in the Unga death penalty moratorium resolutions
On 18 December 2007, the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) adopted a landmark resolution calling for a global moratorium on the use of the death penalty, with 104 votes in favor and 54 votes against. By 2018, there had been seven such UNGA resolutions tabled and passed. This article examines UN member states’ voting practices over these seven resolutions to answer the question: why do states vote as they do? UN member states’ votes on the re…
Active in Not Being Active (Ainba)
This article explores and compares the positions of two major powers in East Asia—China and Japan—towards the 'Responsibility to Protect' (R2P) norm. R2P calls for collective international responsibility in the event that states are unwilling or unable to protect their people. Evaluating the mainstream argument in the literature that China and Japan have recently been welcoming the R2P norm, we ask the following questions: To what extent have Chi…
International Norms, Domestic Politics, and the Death Penalty
Why do countries with similar cultures and political institutions respond differently to international norms? The varied responses among East Asian democracies to the growing international movement to abolish the death penalty show that while Taiwan and South Korea have moved closer to embracing the international human rights norm, Japan has been more resistant. The movement in Taiwan and South Korea toward a moratorium on capital punishment has …
South Korea's De Facto Abolition of the Death Penalty
While the Asian region remains an exception to the global trend towards the abolition of capital punishment, South Korea, which has suspended executions for the past ten years, draws attention to the question of why and how defacto abolition has happened in this country. The purpose of this article is to explain the change in South Korea's death penalty practice, which is largely associated with the development of democratic values and human righ…
Friends Do Not Let Friends Execute
Is the Death Penalty an Asian Value
The Death Penalty and the Peculiarity of American Political Institutions
The right to life vs. the state's ultimate sanction
Although more than ten years have passed since the last execution in South Africa, the controversy over capital punishment continues unabated, and pressure to restore it does not weaken. The South African government, nonetheless, has so far successfully resisted considering reinstatement. The experience with capital punishment under apartheid has shaped the values and ideas of the leadership on what they now consider as a relic of a barbarous pas…
