Extractions: UN Convention on the Rights of the Child by Steve Olson www.stevenolson.com The Convention On The Rights Of The Child On November 20, 1989, the United Nations General Assembly passed the Convention on the Rights of the Child. For the first time, the welfare and the development of each child were placed among the main goals of every participating society. To date, 191 nations have ratified the Convention, making it the most widely adapted human rights treaty in history. Aims of Earthrise International As we all know, the child is the well-spring of civilization. From the child comes the adult who, in turn, shapes life for future generations. The positive development of the child, then, must be a foremost concern for all civilizations. While this principle has guided efforts that predate the founding of the United Nations, international recognition of the rights of children is a relatively recent phenomenon. For a legally recognized international treaty to benefit to the lives of the disenfranchised, its ideas must cross significant cultural, economic and political distances. In India, where circumstances for many children are very dire, the notion of Rights for the Child may be lost in the roar of so many needs. Earthrise International aims to support the rights of the child from the grassroots level. Of foremost concern to us are the survivability and development of India's children, the poor of New Delhi in particular. Through the Health Center, we support these lives at risk through better nutrition and medical help. In the Education Center, we aim to provide the means for a better life than the one in which they were born, so that the cycle of poverty is arrested for future generations. By addressing the most pressing needs of these Indian children, we stand in support of the Convention's noble goals.

Extractions: @import "/c/ai.css"; search The death penalty is a violation of human rights. More than half the countries in the world have now abolished the death penalty in law or practice. The United Nations adopted without dissent the Universal Declaration of Human Rights ( UDHR . The Declaration proclaims the right of every individual to protection from deprivation of life. It states that no one shall be subjected to cruel or degrading punishment. The death penalty violates both of these fundamental rights. The UN adopted the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights ( ICCPR . Article 6 of the Covenant states that "no one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his life" and that the death penalty shall not be imposed on pregnant women or on those who were under the age of 18 at the time of the crime. Article 7 states that "no one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment." The UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) adopted "Safeguards Guaranteeing Protection of the Rights of Those Facing the Death Penalty."

Extractions: Main Tuesday :: April 19, 2005 Tom DeLay Bashes Justice Kennedy Could Rep. Tom DeLay be any more irresponsible and ignorant at the same time? Today, he went after Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy We've got Justice Kennedy writing decisions based upon international law, not the Constitution of the United States? That's just outrageous," DeLay told Fox News Radio. "And not only that, but he said in session that he does his own research on the Internet? That is just incredibly outrageous. Words of advice for DeLay: Zip it. You've become a caricature and a laughing stock. You are making a mockery both of the office you hold and your party. You're on your last leg. Is it too much to ask that you go out with a little dignity? Update : To understand the issue regarding international law, see this post regarding Justice Ginsberg's remarks on the subject in 2003. And in the comments, TChris's excellent analysis: Our Constitution was meant to be an evolving document, one that is suited to changing times. It no longer takes months for a letter to reach France. We are part of a global economy and we play a leading role in the international community. Ginsburg did not say we should base interpretations of our own Constitution on international law, but she properly recognized that the opinions of other western democracies may inform our attempts to apply our Constitutional values to new and recurring legal problems.
