    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-04007-6 - The United Nations Security Council in the Age of Human Rights Edited by Jared Genser and Bruno Stagno Ugarte Frontmatter More information the united nations security council in the age of human rights The United Nations Security Council in the Age of Human Rights is the first comprehensive look at the human-rights dimensions of the work of the only body within the United Nations system capable of compelling action by its member states. Known popularly for its failure to prevent mass atrocities in Rwanda, the Former Yugoslavia, and Syria, the breadth and depth of the Security Council’s work on human rights in recent decades are much broader and more nuanced. This book examines questions such as: How is the Security Council dealing with human rights concerns? What does it see as the place of human rights in conflict prevention, peacemaking, and peacekeeping? And how does it address the quest for justice in the face of gross violations of human rights? Written by leading practitioners, scholars, and experts, this book provides a broad perspective that describes, explains, and evaluates the contribution of the Security Council to the promotion of human rights and how it might achieve the goals it has articulated more effectively. Jared Genser is Managing Director of Perseus Strategies, a law and consulting firm that focuses on human rights, humanitarian, and corporate social responsibility projects. Previously, Genser was a partner in the government affairs practice of DLA Piper LLP and a management consultant with McKinsey & Company. His pro bono clients have included former Czech Republic president Va´clav Havel and Nobel Peace Prize Laureates Aung San Suu Kyi, Liu Xiaobo, Desmond Tutu, and Elie Wiesel.

  • Interview with Jared Genser – on Trump, Venezuela, and the Riddle of Freeing a Taiwanese Activist from China
    May 8, 2017 Interview with Jared Genser – On Trump, Venezuela, and the Riddle of Freeing a Taiwanese Activist from China By Edward White Lee Ching-yu (李凈瑜), wife of the Taiwanese human rights activist detained in China, plans to leave Taipei in the coming weeks for the United States and Europe in a bid to lobby foreign governments to press Beijing for her husband’s release. Lee Ming-che (李明哲), 42, has not been heard from after flying from Taipei to Macau and into Guangdong on March 19. China, which has confirmed he was detained by a branch of the state security police for “involvement in a threat to national security,” has not detailed where he is or the charges he faces. While human rights groups often criticize the U.S., for taking a soft stance on China’s human rights abuses, one international human rights lawyer with extensive experience representing high-profile Chinese dissidents appears to have a fresh sense of optimism thanks to some early moves made by U.S. President Donald Trump. Jared Genser’s current clients include imprisoned Chinese dissident and Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Liu Xiaobo (劉曉波) and Venezuelan opposition leader Leopoldo López. In an interview with The News Lens from Washington D.C., Genser acknowledges his views may seem “totally counterintuitive,” but says President Trump has already, in some cases, been “dramatically better” than President Barack Obama on human rights issues. Genser points Trump’s Feb. 15 meeting with López's wife, Lilian Tintori, at the White House — the President later said via Twitter that Venezuela should let Lopez “out of prison immediately.” “That sent an unmistakable, strong and really extraordinary message that caused shockwaves in Latin America,” Genser says.
