Download or read book Implementation Strategies for Policies on North Korean Human Rights written by Korea Institute for National Unification(South Korea) and published by 길잡이미디어. This book was released on 2015-10-21 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The issue of North Korean human rights has emerged as an international agenda after the publication of the COI Report in 2014. The international community’s emphasis on ensuring accountability of North Korea’s leadership indicates that previous approach of "monitoring" and "expressing concern" has had limited effects in changing North Korea. Despite the international community’s consistent and swift approach to make human rights in North Korea an international agenda, South Korea has been unable to present a united position in terms of its approach, perception, as well as policy direction and means. It is necessary to formulate and implement a more systematic and consistent policy towards human right in North Korea. Furthermore, it should reflect specific means and roadmap to substantially improve North Korean human rights. 1. Introduction 2. Environment Surrounding Policy on North Korean Human Rights A.

Book Synopsis North Korea, International Law and the Dual Crises by : Morse Tan
Download or read book North Korea, International Law and the Dual Crises written by Morse Tan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) has a reputation as one of the worst human rights situations in the world. This book utilizes a unique international law perspective to examine the actions and inactions of North Korea with regard to international security and human rights. Adopting political, military, historical and legal perspectives, the book explores how the two issues of nuclear weapons and the human rights abuses in North Korea are interconnected, and why the international community should apply the same international law framework to find a solution for both. Drawing on eyewitness accounts, such as refugee and defector testimony, Morse Tan offers a real-life story of North Korea that covers the pertinent law, and constructive approaches of its regime. Tan examines the specific objectives and actions of the North Korean government, and measures these according to international legal obligations such as applicable treaty law, jus cogens norms, and customary international law. The book concludes by offering solutions for dealing with international security surrounding the Korean Peninsula, and forwards a proposal for the creation of a tribunal to prosecute those at the top of the regime for international crimes and human rights abuses. As a project exploring the extremes of international law violation, this book will be of great interest and use to readers interested in the history, and political and legal implications of the strategies employed by the North Korea government.

Book Synopsis Patterns of Impunity by : Robert R. King
Download or read book Patterns of Impunity written by Robert R. King and published by Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center. This book was released on 2021-04-06 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the U.S. special envoy for North Korean human rights from 2009 to 2017, Ambassador Robert R. King led efforts to ensure that human rights were an integral part of U.S. policy with North Korea. In this book, he traces U.S. involvement and interest in North Korean human rights, from the adoption of the North Korean Human Rights Act in 2004--legislation which King himself was involved in and which called for the creation of the special envoy position--to his own negotiations with North Korean diplomats over humanitarian assistance, discussions that would ultimately end because of the death of Kim Jong-il and Kim Jong-un's ascension as Supreme Leader, as well as continued nuclear and missile testing. Beyond an in-depth overview of his time as special envoy, Ambassador King provides insights into the United Nations' role in addressing the North Korean human rights crisis, including the UN Human Rights Council's creation of the UN Commission of Inquiry on Human Rights in the DPRK in 2013-14, and discussions in the Security Council on North Korea human rights. King explores subjects such as the obstacles to getting outside information to citizens of one of the most isolated countries in the world; the welfare of DPRK defectors, and how China has both abetted North Korea by returning refugees and enabled the problem of human trafficking; the detaining of U.S. citizens in North Korea and efforts to free them, including King's escorting U.S. citizen Eddie Jun back from Pyongyang in 2011; and the challenges of providing humanitarian assistance to a country with no formal relations with the United States and where separating human rights from politics is virtually impossible.
Download or read book Dying for Rights written by Sandra Fahy and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2019-09-10 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: North Korea’s human rights violations are unparalleled in the contemporary world. In Dying for Rights, Sandra Fahy provides the definitive account of the abuses committed by the North Korean state, domestically and internationally, from its founding to the present. Dying for Rights scrutinizes North Korea’s treatment of its own people as well as foreign nationals, how violations committed by the state spread into the international realm, and how North Korea uses its state media and presence at the United Nations. Fahy meticulously documents the extent of arbitrary detention, torture, executions, and the network of prison camps throughout the country. The book details systematic and widespread violations of freedom of speech and of movement, freedom from discrimination, and the rights to food and to life. Fahy weaves together public and private testimonies from North Koreans resettled abroad, as well as NGO reports, the stories and facts brought to light by the United Nations Commission of Inquiry into North Korea, and North Korea’s own state media, to share powerful personal narratives of human rights abuses. A compassionate yet objective investigation into the factors that sustain and perpetuate the flouting of basic rights, Dying for Rights reveals the profound culpability of the North Korean state in the systematic denial of human dignity.

Book Synopsis North Korea's Forced Labor Enterprise by : Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission
Download or read book North Korea's Forced Labor Enterprise written by Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-04-29 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines North Korea and the issues of forced labor and the lack of human rights in that country. From the report: "There are many articles within the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other human rights instruments that may pertain to the issue we are observing here today. However, I believe Article I of the declaration most profoundly speaks to my concerns, that all human beings are born free. But in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, individuals are born and subjugated by their government to crimes against humanity. In practice, virtually none of North Korea's residents or citizens can reasonably be assessed as free. The human rights condition in North Korea is grave. Violations by the DPRK are gross, widespread, systematic and continual. To quote from the findings of the United Nations Commission of Inquiry on Human Rights in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, quote, "The gravity, scale and nature of those violations reveal a state that does not have any parallel in the contemporary world," end quote. The findings go on to deem the DPRK as seeking to dominate every aspect of its citizens' lives and terrorize them from within. The severity of the human rights situation in North Korea is well known and I applaud the work of the international community including the work of the United Nations for groundbreaking calls for the prosecution of its leaders for crimes against humanity.
Download or read book The Hidden Gulag written by David R. Hawk and published by . This book was released on 2012-04-10 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of Hidden Gulag utilizes the testimony of sixty former North Koreans who were severely and arbitrarily deprived of their liberty in a vast network of penal and forced labor institutions in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK or North Korea) for reasons not permitted by international law. By the time of the research for the second edition in 2010 and 2011, there were some 23,000 former North Koreans who recently arrived in South Korea. Included in this number are hundreds of persons formerly detained in the variety of North Korea's slave labor camps, penitentiaries, and detention facilities. Included in this number are several former prisoners who were arbitrarily imprisoned for twenty to thirty years before their escape or release from the labor camps, and their subsequent flight through China to South Korea. This newly available testimony dramatically increases our knowledge of the operation of North Korea's political prison and labor camp system. This second edition of Hidden Gulag also utilizes a recent international legal framework for the analysis of North Korea's human rights violations: the norms and standards established in the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court for defining and determining crimes against humanity, which became operative in July 2002. In addition to the testimony and accounts from the former political prisoners in this report, this second edition of Hidden Gulag also includes satellite photographs of the prison camps.
