It details the chequered history of both rights within the UN system and evaluates the suitability of the system for overcoming contemporary challenges and threats to the rights. Leading scholars address key issues, such as how the rights to freedom of expression and information can come into conflict with other human rights and with public policy goals, such as counter-terrorism. The book's institutional focus comprises five international treaties, UNESCO and the UN Special Rapporteur on freedom of expression. Relevant for academics, lawyers, policy-makers and civil society actors, it also examines how new communication technologies have prompted fresh thinking about the substance and scope of the rights to freedom of expression and information"-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 00 $t Tacit citing : the scarcity of judicial dialogue between the global and the regional human rights mechanisms in freedom of expression cases / $r Antoine Buyse. $t The development of freedom of expression and information within the UN: leaps and bounds or fits and starts? / $r Tarlach McGonagle -- $t International covenant on civil and political rights: interpreting freedom of expression and information standards for the present and the future / $r Michael O'Flaherty -- $t International covenant on economic, social and cultural rights: accessibility and the right to information / $r Yvonne Donders -- $t International convention on the elimination of all forms of racial discrimination: the prohibition of 'racist hate speech' / $r Patrick Thornberry -- $t Convention on the rights of the child: freedom of expression for children / $r Lucy Smith -- $t Convention on the rights of persons with disabilities: ensuring full and equal access to information / $r Eliza Varney -- $t UNESCO: freedom of expression, information and the media / $r Sylvie Coudray -- $t The UN special rapporteur on freedom of opinion and expression: progressive development of international standards relating to freedom of expression / $r Toby Mendel -- $t Ten challenges for the right to information in the age of mega-leaks / $r Helen Darbishire -- $t Early days: the UN, ICTs and freedom of expression / $r Karol Jakubowicz -- $t A new vision of values, accountability and mission for journalism / $r Aidan White -- $t Uprooting 'defamation of religions' and planting a new approach to freedom of expression at the United Nations / $r Sejal Parmar -- $t Limits to freedom of expression: lessons from counter-terrorism / $r Martin Scheinin -- $t Tacit citing : the scarcity of judicial dialogue between the global and the regional human rights mechanisms in freedom of expression cases / $r Antoine Buyse. 610 20 $a United Nations. 610 27 $a United Nations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00530351 610 27 $a Vereinte Nationen. $0 (DE-588)333-5 $2 gnd 650 0 $a Freedom of expression. 650 0 $a Freedom of information (International law) 650 0 $a International law and human rights. 650 7 $a LAW / International. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Freedom of expression. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01200263 650 7 $a Freedom of information (International law) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00934024 650 7 $a International law and human rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01894145 650 7 $a Informationsfreiheit. $0 (DE-588)4127674-7 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Meinungsfreiheit. $0 (DE-588)4038463-9 $2 gnd 700 1 $a McGonagle, Tarlach, $e editor. 700 1 $a Donders, Yvonne, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213013537.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=114C7D7281F911E58D57CB8FDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
