Given the dramatic development of human rights under international law and the parallel proliferation of global institutions for public health, there arises an imperative to understand the implementation of human rights through global health governance. This volume examines the evolving relationship between human rights, global governance, and public health, studying an exp…

The MDG-Human Rights Nexus to 2015 and Beyond
Progress has been made in some MDG areas. But in some regions and in many Target areas, progress is overshadowed by the numbers of those left behind and by rising inequalities within and between nations. This article argues that we need better integration of human rights and development and provides some specific ways forward to do this
Within/Without
My practice seeks to give visual expression to the experience of an inner world as it relates to the outer world. This experience has been explored through parallel practices of contemplation, including art making, meditation, and yoga asana. In this article, I describe art making as recording the experience of movement through space and time. I explore the themes of impermanence and interdependence as they have surfaced through contemplation. I …

Mary Robinson was United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights from 1997 to 2002.

Human Rights and DevelopmentTowards Mutual Reinforcement
For several decades after the UN Charter insisted that the promotion of development and human rights were central to post-World War II conceptions of world order, the two fields remained in virtual isolation from one another.

The recent 100th anniversary of the birth of Ralph Johnson Bunche, serves as a timely reminder of the United States' proud history of leadership and commitment to international law and institutions, and of how much that kind of leadership is needed today. There is an urgent need for the United States to reflect on its own historic role in the establishment of a global system of rules and institutions. The time has come to renew its commitment, in…
Human Rights in Youth Sport
Does competitive sport respect children's human rights? Is intensive training child labour? Is competitive stress a form of child abuse? The human rights of children have been recognized in the 1989 UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, and ratified by 192 countries. Paulo David's work makes it clear, however, that too often competitive sport fails to recognize the value of respect for international child rights norms and standards. Human Rig…

Development of a Measure of Androgyny for Young Adolescents
The construct of psychological androgyny or the co-presence of mas-culine and feminine traits, has been studied in college students as well as older adults. The ontogeny of androgyny has received limited empirical attention, in part because of the lack of available instruments. The present study describes the development and initial validation of the Adolescent Sex Role Inventory (ASRI) for subjects ages 10-14, and represents a downward extension…
