Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback. 'In the light of impending environmental catastrophe people all over the world in all walks of life are becoming more aware of the pressing need to act globally. The need to base our decisions and actions less on parochial national advantage sequestered in hate and suspicion of other nation's playing the same game of Russian roulette have to give way to a new appreciation of the fact that our global village is indeed so very small and perilously frail. We depend upon one another as never before and unless we insure the health and human rights of all we shall surely each perish individually.' In Health Human Rights and the United Nations Theodore H MacDonald carefully analyses the origin development and structure of the United Nations (UN) and its key agencies and considers its capacity to mediate the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. He takes a detailed look into human rights abuses in Sudan's Darfur province Burma Liberia the Occupied Palestinian Territories and the United Kingdom. By investigating the development of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the pressures being brought to bear upon it MacDonald exposes contradictions in the aims of both the WHO and the UN.Does the current global political scene and its neoliberal policies nullify the work of both? Is the UN fit for purpose? Can drastic reforms result in equitable solutions? Can a new trans-national body be developed to arbitrate global trade health human rights and fiscal issues? This remarkable book is ideal for anyone interested in international law human rights global health public health and health promotion. Public health and health promotion professionals including international healthcare organisations care agencies and international charities will find the analysis enlightening.
