New Technologies and Human Rights: Challenges to Regulation
The contributors to this book explore the
political discourse and power relations of technological growth and human rights
issues between the Global South and the Global North and uncover the different
perspectives of both regions. They investigate the conflict between technology
and human rights and the perpetuation of inequality and subjection of the South
to the North. With emerging economies such as Brazil playing a major role in
trade, investment and financial law, this book examines how human rights are
affected in Southern countries and identifies significant challenges to reform
in the areas of international law and policy.
