It specifically analyses the way in which IIL protections impact on the parallel protection of economic, social and cultural rights (ESC rights) in the host state, especially the right to water. Arguing that current responses have been unsatisfactory, it considers the emergence of the 'Protect, Respect and Remedy' framework and the Guiding Principles for Business and Human Rights (jointly the Framework) as a possible analytical instrument. In so doing, it proposes a different approach to the way in which the Framework is generally interpreted, and then investigates the possible applicability of this 'recalibrated' Framework to the study of the IHRL-IIL interplay in a host country in a protracted armed conflict: Afghanistan. Through the emblematic example of Afghanistan, the book presents a practical dimension to its legal analysis. It uniquely portrays the elusive intersection between these two bodies of international law within a host country where the armed conflict continues to rage and a full economic restructuring is taking place away from the public eye, not least through the deployment of IIL and the inaction - or merely partial consideration - of IHRL. The book will be of interest to academics, policy-makers, and practitioners of international organisations involved in IHRL, IIL and/or deployed in contexts of armed conflict"-- $c Provided by publisher. 611 27 $a Afghan War (2001-) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01695175 650 0 $a Investments, Foreign $x Law and legislation. 650 0 $a Humanitarian law. 650 0 $a Mineral industries $x Law and legislation. 650 0 $a International law and human rights. 650 0 $a Afghan War, 2001- $x Law and legislation. 650 0 $a Investments, Foreign $x Law and legislation $z Afghanistan. 650 7 $a Humanitarian law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963577 650 7 $a International law and human rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01894145 650 7 $a Investments, Foreign $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00978387 650 7 $a Legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00995636 650 7 $a Mineral industries $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01022289 651 7 $a Afghanistan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205406 776 08 $i Online version: $a Davitti, Daria, author. $t Investment and human rights in armed conflict $d Oxford, UK ; Chicago, Illinois : Hart Publishing, 2019 $z 9781509911646 $w (DLC) 2019005071 830 0 $a Human rights law in perspective 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240619011528.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3C7C99CE209B11EABA878C2E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
