Read

At this time there are over 20 different international courts and tribunals. The various courts address general disputes, criminal prosecutions, trade disputes, human rights violations, military disputes, and so on. Karen Alter's article sets forth the varied courts and their responsibilities. She also discusses what effect international courts have upon a state's domestic democracy.

Additionally, with so many such courts, one has to wonder if they are actually aiding in security. But how does one measure the efficacy of an international court? The article by Laurence Helfer discusses factors he believes should be examined in making such a determination.

Discuss

  • Should a World Court for Business and Human Rights (an international court addressing human rights violations by private entities) be created?
    • If such a court were to exist, would it be "successful"?
      • How would we know?
    • Should the United States become a part of it?
      • Why or why not?

Be sure to use valid sources, laws, etc. to support your position, not just rhetoric or political opinion.

step against corporate impunity. One of the benefits: the protection of victims of human rights
abuses by corporations and development of international law will be as a result of existence of
this world court. For the global continent believes in human rights, the supremacy of law and the
possibility of problem solving through the judicial process, it is essential to create the world
court for business and human rights (Avery, 2000). By this, the different corporations will adhere
to the set out conditions to prevent their exploitation of the customers.
Another reason why the world court for business and human rights should be created is
because there is no body that can be regarded as a substitute for a world court for human rights
violations by private entities despite the formation of different bodies. This is because: first,
these bodies may not be judicial ones especially for the various committees and commissions.
Second, they are not directly dealing wi...
