Tema ovoga rada odnosi se na trgovinu ljudima što je najteži oblik kršenja ljudskih prava. Trgovina ljudima je globalni fenomen i time su pogođene gotovo sve zemlje svijeta na ovaj ili onaj način. ...Posebno za organizirane kriminalne skupine trgovina ljudima ima prednost nad trgovinom drogom, jer se robu, kao ljude, može prodavati iznova i iznova. Trgovina ljudima također je isplativija od „tradicionalnog“ ropstva, jer se žrtve obično “nabavljaju” iz siromašnijih zemalja i prodaju u bogatije zemlje, gdje ih se može prodati za ogroman profit. Većina žrtava su žene i djeca, posebno djevojčice, ali tijekom posljednjih godina porastao je postupno i broj muškaraca. Trgovina radi seksualnog iskorištavanja najčešći je i najrasprostranjeniji oblik trgovine ljudima, posebno u Europi, Americi i jugoistočnoj i pacifičkoj Aziji. Udio trgovine ljudima u svrhu eksploatacije radne snage također je u porastu i postao je najzastupljeniji oblik trgovine ljudima u subsaharskoj Africi, te na Bliskom istoku. Zaštita ljudskih prava sigurno je jedan od najvažnijih aspekata razvoja. Međutim, zaštita ljudskih prava dobiva mnogo manje pozornosti od ostalih aspekata, vjerojatno dijelom zato što ih je teško izmjeriti. Ljudska prava su univerzalna jer se temelje na dostojanstvu svakog čovjeka, bez obzira na rasu, boju, spol, etničko ili socijalno podrijetlo, religiju, jezik, nacionalnost, starost, seksualnu orijentaciju, invaliditet ili na bilo koje druge karakteristike.
The topic of this paper concerns trafficking in human beings as the most serious form of human rights violation. Trafficking in human beings is a global phenomenon and almost all countries in the world are affected in one way or another. Especially for organized crime groups, trafficking in human beings takes precedence over drug trafficking, because goods, as humans, can be sold over and over again. Trafficking in human beings is also more cost-effective than “traditional” slavery, as victims are usually sourced from poorer countries and sold to richer countries where they can be sold for huge profits. Most of the victims are women and children, especially girls, but in recent years the number of men has gradually increased. Trafficking for sexual exploitation is the most common and widespread form of trafficking, especially in Europe, America, and Southeast and Pacific Asia. The share of human trafficking for labor exploitation is also on the rise and has become the most prevalent form of trafficking in sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East. Protecting human rights is certainly one of the most important aspects of development. However, human rights protection receives much less attention than other aspects, probably partly because they are difficult to measure. Human rights are universal because they are based on the dignity of every person, regardless of race, color, gender, ethnic or social origin, religion, language, nationality, age, sexual orientation, disability or any other characteristics.

Policing Humanitarianism examines the ways in which European Union policies aimed at countering the phenomenon of migrant smuggling affects civil society actors' activities in the provision of ...humanitarian assistance, access to rights for irregular immigrants and asylum seekers. It explores the effects of EU policies, laws and agencies' operations in anti-migrant smuggling actions and their implementation in the following EU Member States: Italy, Greece, Hungary and the UK.The book critically studies policies designed and implemented since 2015, during the so called 'European refugee humanitarian crisis'. Building upon the existing academic literature covering the 'criminalisation of migration ' in the EU, the book examines the wider set of punitive, coercive or control-oriented dynamics affecting Civil Society Actors' work and activities through the lens of the notion of ' policing the mobility society'. This concept seeks to provide a framework of analysis that allows for an examination of a wider set of practices, mechanisms and tools driven by a logic of policing in the context of the EU Schengen border framework: those which affect not only people, who move (qualified as third- country nationals for the purposes of EU law), but also people who mobilise in a rights-claiming capacity on behalf of and with immigrants and asylum- seekers.
U radu se istražuju negativne medijske kampanje u Hrvatskoj početkom devedesetih godina 20. stoljeća u kojima su tiskani mediji uslijed nesnalaženja u ratnim i poratnim okolnostima te pod utjecajem ...vladajuće ideologije stigmatizirali i progonili predstavnike kulturne i intelektualne zajednice Hrvatske. Također se istražuje u kojoj je mjeri u tim kampanjama korišten govor mržnje, ratnohuškačka retorika te modeli etiketiranja, stigmatiziranja i „sotoniziranja“ pojedinaca s ciljem ideološkog, profesionalnog i moralnog diskreditiranja tih osoba u javnom životu. Rad se nadovezuje na rezultate istraživača koji su propitivali govor mržnje i huškačku retoriku u hrvatskim medijima, a posebno istražuje negativnu medijsku kampanju protiv glumice Mire Furlan. Istraživanjem je utvrđeno da su tiskani mediji u izvještavanjima kršili etička i profesionalna načela i norme te su takvim pristupom ugrozili ljudska i profesionalna prava i demonizirali lik glumice u javnosti.

Welchen Beitrag kann das Recht auf Nahrung zur Überwindung der globalen Ernährungskrise leisten? Statt das Ziel einer hungerfreien Welt als Utopie abzutun, werden Menschenrechtsklagen als wirksame ...Instrumente beschrieben, um Diskurse über Ursachen von Nahrungsunsicherheit anzuregen und die Ergreifung notwendiger Anti-Hunger-Programme zu beschleunigen. Aufbauend auf der nationalen und internationalen Rechtsprechung zum „right to food“ werden drei Zugangsrechte entwickelt: das Recht auf soziale Fürsorge, das Recht auf ein ausreichendes Einkommen und das Recht auf Selbstversorgung. Angesichts globaler Gefährdungslagen, die sich etwa in abrupt schwankenden Weltagrarpreisen sowie dem Klimawandel offenbaren, wird zudem eine transnationale Schutzdimension begründet. Die Bedeutung grenzüberschreitender Menschenrechtsdiskurse wird exemplarisch anhand von zwei Fallstudien zum Agrardumping und zur Förderung von Biokraftstoffen verdeutlicht.

Its aim is to offer a series of contributions, made by distinguished ...scholars and legal experts, on the Charter considered as a living legal instrument, with a view to understanding whether, five years after its entry into force and fifteen years after its first proclamation, it is being taken seriously, and whether its use and effective impact within the legal orders and practice of the European Union and Member States can realistically improve in the coming years.The contributions are structured and organized around three main themes, "The EU Charter of Fundamental Rights as a Legal Instrument: General Issues", "The Charter and Social Rights", and "Assessing the Legal Impact of the Charter at the National Level". Scholars and experts participating in the book have conducted, under the supervision of its editor, extensive and in-depth analysis on the many issues raised by each of these themes. The result is a fascinating and varied collection of essays that combines high academic quality with great practical usefulness.

Autorica u ovom radu obrađuje temu prava djece na igru kroz Konvenciju o pravima djeteta i kao tri ključna izazova navodi pitanje prepoznavanja, poštivanja i promicanja prava djece na igru. ...Referirajući se na istraživanja koja pokazuju da se vrijeme koje djeca provode u igri sve više smanjuje, ukazuje na problem “suptilnog” kršenja prava djeteta, kao i na izravne posljedice sve kraćeg vremena igranja na djetetov intelektualni, društveni, emocionalni i fizički razvoj. Autorica se u radu također kratko bavi povezanošću igre i smanjenja/povećanja nasilja među djecom.
