Now The mechanisms available within the existing legal and economic framework to advance corporate accountability for human rights abuses, and for their conduct in other areas of social concern, generally fall into three categories: (1) domestic law: regulation and litigation under state domestic legal systems; (2) international law: binding international law governing corporate complicity in international crimes and non-binding international norms on the issue of business and human rights; and (3) market forces: socially responsible investment funds, shareholder activism, consumer boycotts, etc. This article summarizes the latest developments in each of these areas.

CEU eTD Collection Abstract The effect of New Media in the wave of protests that swept the Arab World in 2011-2012 has generated a large body of scholarly work due to the widespread calls for democratization in a region that had been entirely under the control of authoritarian leaders for decades. However, in the wake of these protest there has been little research into what effect New Media had those countries which did not experience regime change. This paper will examine the impact of New Media on the policies of the Palestinian Authority. It will show that New Media has the potential for an increase in democratic characteristics, i.e. steps towards a more transparent government that listens to the people, even in the absence of successful democratization.

  • The Politics of Israel/Palestine Thursdays 2:35-5:25 Course Location: CB 3208 (Please Confirm on Carleton Central)
    PSCI 5915-W Winter 2019 Special Topics: The Politics of Israel/Palestine Thursdays 2:35-5:25 Course Location: CB 3208 (Please confirm on Carleton Central) Department of Political Science Carleton University Prof. Mira Sucharov Office: C678 Loeb [email protected] Office Hours: Weds 2:30-3:55 or by appointment. (Please do not use my voice mail. Email is the best way to reach me. [email protected]) Course Description: This course examines the politics of Israel/Palestine. It would be customary in IR and political science when studying one country or region to consider it a “case” of something. But as we will see, the politics around Israel-Palestine is in large part animated by the contestation over such classification. Is it a case of protracted conflict? A case of colonial oppression? A case of human rights violations? A case of competing nationalisms? The course will examine these competing (though not necessarily mutually-exclusive) frameworks. The course proceeds both chronologically and conceptually/thematically. Those without a basic knowledge of the case might wish to purchase a textbook to read early on. (Suggestions: those by Dowty, Smith, and Caplan.) In addition, to further explore op-ed writing (and social media engagement, especially around sensitive topics), you may want to consult my book on the topic (optional), which should be out in mid-to-late January.

  • In Search of a Viable Option Evaluating Outcomes to the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
    Policy Report In Search of a Viable Option Evaluating Outcomes to the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict A report by Dr. Shira Efron and Evan Gottesman, with a foreword by Ambassador Daniel B. Shapiro Is the two-state solution still possible? Are other frameworks better or more feasible than two states? This study seeks to answer these questions through a candid and rigorous analysis. Is there another viable outcome? While the two-state model deserves to be debated on its merits, and certainly on its viability, pronouncements of this formula’s death raise the question: if not two states, then what? About the Study The two-state solution has been widely criticized from the right and the left as an idea whose time has passed and been overtaken by facts on the ground. As a result, many other models for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict have been advanced, from one-state formulas to confederation outcomes to maintaining the status quo indefinitely. How do these proposals for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict — including the recently released Trump plan — measure up against key criteria, like keeping Israel Jewish and democratic, providing security, and ensuring feasibility? Is there a model that fits the needs of both parties while being realistic in practice? This comprehensive study of potential outcomes for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict assesses the strengths and weaknesses of different plans, and trains a critical eye on whether a two-state solution is still possible, concluding that despite the heavy lift it will take to implement, a two-state outcome is not only possible but the only implementable plan that maintains Israel as Jewish and democratic.

  • THE POLITICAL MAPPING of PALESTINE Linda Elizabeth
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Carolina Digital Repository THE POLITICAL MAPPING OF PALESTINE Linda Elizabeth Quiquivix A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Geography Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Altha J. Cravey Banu Gökariksel John Pickles Alvaro Reyes Sara Smith Jonathan Weiler ABSTRACT LINDA QUIQUIVIX: The Political Mapping of Palestine (Under the direction of Altha J. Cravey) Debates on the Israel-Palestinian conflict abound. Insofar as these discussions focus on what peace between Israelis and Palestinians might look like, they often resort to what the map should look like. Motivated by concerns over how cartographic practices have become uncritically adopted by the Palestinian movement since the advent of the “peace process,” this dissertation critically examines the map’s role in producing the conflict, in hindering a liberatory politics, and in maintaining the current impasse. This study is largely structured as a genealogy of Palestine’s maps from the nineteenth- century to the present—an array of mappings produced by a multitude of actors: colonial, religious, nationalist, statist, diasporic and revolutionary, both from above and from below. These historical-political excavations are theoretically grounded within the literature on critical cartography, the production of space, and feminist political geography. They are examined empirically through archival research, ethnographic methods, and discourse analysis. This study’s theoretical intervention highlights the map’s production of Palestine as a space of ownership and control.

Palestinian rights, but not full rights,” you are then looking at around 100 seats, out of 120. Diana Buttu: I am not at all surprised by how So that leaves a spectrum of 20 seats, that’s all, things worked out. I think the only thing that 1/6 of the population who believes that there surprised me were the initial polls that were should be equal rights for Palestinians...whether indicating that the Zionist Camp was doing better that is in the form of two states, or the form of than they ended up doing. This is also no surprise equality, this is the landscape that we are looking because, it is not just a question of whether at now. This isn’t some scenario where Likud just Likud managed to garner the highest number of parachuted in from nowhere. There has been a seats but it is important to look at the spectrum very steady march and shift to the right over the of where the votes actually went...who got seats course of the past 15-20 years, maybe more, and and who didn’t get seats, to get a perspective again not just a shift to the right, but the extreme of what Israel as a country is now looking like.
