Book Description
Soft law increasingly shapes and impacts the content of international law in multiple ways, from being a first step in a norm-making process to providing detailed rules and technical standards required for the interpretation and the implementation of treaties. This is especially true in the area of human rights. While relatively few human rights treaties have been adopted at the UN level in the last two decades, the number of declarations, resolutions, conclusions, and principles has grown significantly. In some areas, soft law has come to fill a void in the absence of treaty law, exerting a degree of normative force exceeding its non-binding character. In others areas, soft law has become a battleground for interpretative struggles to expand and limit human rights protection in the context of existing regimes. Despite these developments, little attention has been paid to soft law within human rights legal scholarship. Building on a thorough analysis of relevant case studies, this volume systematically explores the roles of soft law in both established and emerging human rights regimes. The book argues that a better understanding of how soft law shapes and affects different branches of international human rights law not only provides a more dynamic picture of the current state of international human rights, but also helps to unsettle and critically question certain political and doctrinal beliefs. Following introductory chapters that lay out the general conceptual framework, the book is divided in two parts. The first part focuses on cases that examine the role of soft law within human rights regimes where there are established hard law standards, its progressive and regressive effects, and the role that different actors play in the incubation process. The second part focuses on the role of soft law in emerging areas of international law where there is no substantial treaty codification of norms. These chapters examine the relationship between soft and hard law, the role of different actors in formulating new soft law, and the potential for eventual codification.

Book Description
Incluida en el objetivo segundo dentro del área de actividad de «cooperación y desarrollo», esta obra está centrada en la evolución normativa e institucional que viene desarrollándose en el marco internacional de protección de los derechos humanos de los grupos diferenciados y que está dirigida al reconocimiento de los pueblos indígenas como comunidades a las que les corresponden una serie de derechos colectivos específicos. Para su realización se ha asumido una estrategia de investigación que ha profundizado en las dimensiones técnico-jurídicas y formalistas (normativa), axiológicas (fundamentación) y socio-históricas (contexto de formación), atendiendo al complejo entramado de aspectos que se entrecruzan en la constitución de este nuevo marco jurídico, aún en construcción, y las instituciones internacionales a él asociadas. Destinado a especialistas, investigadores y defensores de los derechos humanos, es un adecuado instrumento para agencias de cooperación, organizaciones no gubernamentales y todas aquellas personas interesadas en América Latina y en las cuestiones vinculadas con los pueblos indígenas y la diversidad cultural.

Book Description
The Politics of Identity in Latin American Censuses contributes new and original perspectives to existing discussions about the shaping of multiculturalist ideology in Latin America, its interweaving with the cultural politics of neoliberalism and the relation between ethnic identification resurgence and economic globalization. Scrutinising national censuses across the continent, the studies included in this volume reveal clear relationships between censuses, nation-building and government projects, but also strong and determinant connections between domestic and supra-national spheres. The contributors to this volume open provocative avenues of research on Latin American societies by demonstrating how, in the realm of identity politics, supra-national institutions and normativity socialise national census bureaus in a way that largely annuls ideological differences between regional governments. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Iberian and Latin American Research.
