160 Pacific Avenue, Suite 200, San Francisco, California 94111 Telephone: 415.249.5800 Fax: 415.772.9137 Website Carta abierta de los galardonados de Premio Ambiental Goldman a los gobiernos en la ocasión de la Cumbre de la Tierra 2012 Somos los recipientes del Premio Ambiental Goldman. Nos han amenazado. Nos han torturado. Nos han capturado. Hemos muerto por los tóxicos industriales en nuestra sangre. Nos han matado. Somos los recipientes del Premio Ambiental Goldman. Somos de 81 países. Somos activistas locales. Somos embajadores nacionales. Somos pueblos indígenas. Somos ministros del medioambiente. Somos mujeres. Somos hombres. Somos ancianos. Somos jóvenes. Por más de dos décadas el Premio Goldman nos ha honrado, por los grandes riesgos que hemos tomado para proteger el medioambiente. Ahora les pedimos a ustedes arriesgarse. Es su deber participar en la "Cumbre de la Tierra" en Rio de Janeiro y conducirnos a la acción en defensa de la biodiversidad. La Cumbre de la Tierra nos presenta una oportunidad profunda para fortalecer nuestro compromiso global por la protección del planeta, el cual fue reconocido hace 20 años en la histórica "Cumbre de la Tierra Río‐1992". Desde entonces, los pueblos del Mundo han preservado especies en peligro de extinción, conservado territorios frágiles, y desarrollado alternativas para algunos de nuestras practicas más destructivas. Repetidas veces las comunidades han ganado grandes batallas. Pero es la sociedad civil quien esta liderando las acciones de conservación, con gente como nosotros poniendo nuestras vidas y bienestar en peligro por el hecho de proteger el medioambiente. Ahora, urgentemente, les rogamos tomar el liderazgo para proteger el planeta que compartimos, para bien de las futuras generaciones, les impulsamos participar en la Cumbre de la Tierra para hacer compromisos serios hacia el desarrollo sustentable. Les urgimos tomar un riesgo, como lo hemos tomado, para defender la Tierra.

    JapanFocus http://japanfocus.org/articles/print_article/3285 Charter 08, the Troubled History and Future of Chinese Liberalism Feng Chongyi The publication of Charter 08 in China at the end of 2008 was a major event generating headlines all over the world. It was widely recognized as the Chinese human rights manifesto and a landmark document in China’s quest for democracy. However, if Charter 08 was a clarion call for the new march to democracy in China, its political impact has been disappointing. Its primary drafter Liu Xiaobo, after being kept in police custody over one year, was sentenced on Christmas Day of 2009 to 11 years in prison for the “the crime of inciting subversion of state power”, nor has the Chinese communist party-state taken a single step toward democratisation or improving human rights during the year.1 This article offers a preliminary assessment of Charter 08, with special attention to its connection with liberal forces in China. Liu Xiaobo The Origins of Charter 08 and the Crystallisation of Liberal and Democratic Ideas in China Charter 08 was not a bolt from the blue but the result of careful deliberation and theoretical debate, especially the discourse on liberalism since the late 1990s. In its timing, Charter 08 anticipated that major political change would take place in China in 2009 in light of a number of important anniversaries. These included the 20th anniversary of the June 4th crackdown, the 50th anniversary of the exile of the Dalai Lama, the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the 90th anniversary of the May 4th Movement.

  • Environmental Civil Society and Governance in China
    ASIA PROGRAMME ASP BP 05/04 AUGUST 2005 Environmental Civil Society and Governance in China Yiyi Lu, Chatham House Summary • Chinese environmental civil society has become increasingly active in recent years and has helped to improve environmental governance. • Environmental NGOs work in close alliance with the media and environmentally-minded officials and agencies in the government, notably the State Environmental Protection Agency. • There is significant diversity within the NGO sector. Differences between more ‘radical’ and more ‘timid’ organizations and between more ‘professional’ and more ‘amateurish’ ones may hamper closer collaboration. • Environmental civil society needs to improve its technical capacity, to further strengthen collaboration between different organizations, and to strike a balance between maintaining domestic support and addressing international concerns. • The biggest challenge ahead for environmental civil society is to develop the skills to address the broader political, economic and social issues that underlie environmental issues. • Key emerging issues for international donors include the policy impact of the Chinese environmental civil society. To what extent does it set the agenda? Will it begin to campaign on key issues for donors, such as energy usage? • Key emerging issues for Chinese civil society actors include whether civil society actors will increasingly cooperate with each other. How can greater cooperation be promoted? How will NGOs maintain momentum when more controversial issues arise, such as development in western China? * Field research for this paper was carried out in China in May and June 2005. I would like to thank the individuals who granted me interviews. To protect their identities no names are given here, but I am very grateful to all my interviewees for openly sharing a great deal of invaluable information with me.

Aboriginal Policy Research Consortium International (APRCi). 198. https://ir.lib.uwo.ca/aprci/198 TRANSCENDING SOVEREIGNTY: LOCATING INDIGENOUS PEOPLES IN TRANSBOUNDARY WATER LAW by JENNIFER LYNNE ARCHER LL.B., University of British Columbia, 1996 B.A., University of Alberta, 1993 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF LAWS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) January 2012 © Jennifer Lynne Archer, 2012 Electronic copy available at: http://ssrn.com/abstract=1997539 Abstract All people rely upon water for life. Indigenous peoples are especially vulnerable to water conflicts and yet lack recognition in international water law. This thesis adopts Critical Race Theory to examine the intersection between transboundary water law, the doctrine of sovereignty and the international law of Indigenous peoples. The methodology adopted in this thesis includes: (i) a deconstruction of the UN Watercourse Convention and the doctrine of sovereignty; (ii) a review of Indigenous perspectives on sovereignty; and (iii) a proposal for the reconstruction of transboundary water law in a manner that recognizes the internationally affirmed rights of Indigenous peoples. A deconstruction of the UN Watercourse Convention and related discourse reveals that state-centric approaches to transboundary water law fail to recognize Indigenous peoples’ international rights or the pivotal role that Indigenous peoples’ traditional knowledge might play in transcending conflict.
