The regulation of sovereign financing is a highly topical and significant issue, in the light of continuing global financial turmoil. This book assesses the role of international law in sovereign financing, addressing this issue from both legal and economic standpoints. It takes as a starting point the recent report ''Principles on Responsible Sovereign Lending and Borrowing'' by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). This report was endorsedby the United Nations General Assembly in its December 2011 Resolution on Debt, which emphasized the need for creditors and debtors to share responsibility for preventing unsustainable debt situations and encouraged all stakeholders to pursue the ongoing discussions within the framework of theUNCTAD Initiative.Investigating the legal and economic basis for the principles which were articulated in the report, the book develops a detailed and nuanced analysis of the controversial and complex issues they raise, including those concerning finance and credit rating agencies, contingent liabilities, debt management, corruption, fiduciary relations and duties, Collective Action Clauses, and the role of the EU and UN. Ultimately, it argues that the principles elaborated in the report correspond with generalprinciples of international law, which provide a strong, pre-existing foundation upon which to build responsible principles for sovereign financing.

Much has been written on the Argentine dictatorship and the transitional justice movement that brought its members to justice. However there has been no study to date of the economic accomplices to this dictatorship and the recent advancements in Argentina towards holding these actors accountable. What was the role of banks, companies, and individuals in perpetuating a murderous regime? To what extent should they be held responsible? As the first academic study on economic complicity in Argentina, this book attempts to answer these questions. Renowned human rights scholars investigate the role played by such actors as Ford, Mercedes Benz, the press, foreign banks, and even the Catholic Church. Across numerous case studies, the authors make a compelling argument for the legal responsibility of economic accomplices. A groundbreaking interdisciplinary study, this book will be essential to anyone interested in transitional justice, business, and human rights.

There is an obvious need to learn more about why some countries succeed and others fail when dealing with debt crises. Why do some sovereign debtors overcome economic problems very quickly and at minor human rights costs for their people, while others remain trapped by debts for years struggling with overwhelming debt burdens and exacerbating economic problems and human suffering? This book analyzes fourteen unique or singular country cases of sovereign debt problems that differ characteristically from the 'ordinary' debtor countries, and have not yet received enough or proper attention - some regarded as successful, some as unsuccessful in dealing with debt crises. The aim is to contribute to a better understanding of the policy options available to countries struggling with debt problems, or how to resolve a debt overhang while protecting human rights, the Rule of Law and the debtor's economic recovery.

Poor public resource management and the global financial crisis curbing fundamental fiscal space, millions thrown into poverty, and authoritarian regimes running successful criminal campaigns with the help of financial assistance are all phenomena that raise fundamental questions around finance and human rights. They also highlight the urgent need for more systematic and robust legal and economic thinking about sovereign finance and human rights. This edited collection aims to contribute to filling this gap by introducing novel legal theories and analyses of the links between sovereign debt and human rights from a variety of perspectives. These chapters include studies of financial complicity, UN sanctions, ethics, transitional justice, criminal law, insolvency proceedings, millennium development goals, global financial architecture, corporations, extraterritoriality, state of necessity, sovereign wealth and hedge funds, project financing, state responsibility, international financial institutions, the right to development, UN initiatives, litigation, as well as case studies from Africa, Asia and Latin America. These chapters are then theorised by the editors in an introductory chapter. In July 2012 the UN Human Rights Council finally issued its own guidelines on foreign debt and human rights, yet much remains to be done to promote better understanding of the legal and economic implications of the interface between finance and human rights. This book will contribute to that understanding as well as help practitioners in their everyday work. The authors include world-renowned lawyers and economists, experienced practitioners and officials from international organisations.

El libro demuestra, con argumentos teóricos y estudios de casos, que en Chile, para alcanzar objetivos básicos en materia de justicia, memoria, reparación y prevención, resulta crucial concentrarnos en el comportamiento de los actores económicos durante la dictadura pinochetista. Mediante el análisis de diversos casos de complicidad económica con la dictadura, el libro establece cómo dichas conexiones contribuyeron a los niveles de desigualdad hoy experimentados en Chile y elabora un marco teórico para su análisis. Además, aporta información y argumentos legales, económicos, políticos, históricos e institucionales en la agenda que involucra a las complicidades económicas en Chile.

¿Cuál fue el papel que desempeñaron los funcionarios judiciales, los abogados y sus asociaciones, y los juristas durante la dictadura? ¿Qué podrían haber hecho los jueces dadas las circunstancias de entonces? ¿Son legalmente responsables los abogados, los fiscales y los jueces cómplices? ¿Cómo se enseñaba Derecho en esos años? ¿Hubo una renovación de jueces con el retorno de la democracia? ¿Qué conclusiones nos aporta este libro para reflexionar sobre el papel de la justicia en la Argentina de hoy? Fortaleciendo la investigación sobre la dimensión civil de la complicidad con el último gobierno de facto, ¿Usted también, doctor? revela y sistematiza el modo en que una inmensa mayoría de los integrantes del Poder Judicial contribuyó con el régimen y le proveyó legitimidad, mientras que sólo unos pocos asumieron una conducta independiente y comprometida con la sociedad.Los autores, reconocidos especialistas en el campo de las ciencias sociales, proporcionan datos inéditos, argumentos sólidos y un intenso debate sobre la complicidad que echan luz sobre los mecanismos que la hacían posible: la denegación sistemática de hábeas corpus, la confirmación de la validez de las normas represivas, la instrucción de causas penales fraudulentas para extorsionar a empresarios, el apercibimiento a los jueces de instancias inferiores que realizaban las instrucciones penales o la participación en maniobras de ocultamiento de cadáveres, entre otros.Indiscutible obra de referencia sobre el tema, este libro deja en claro que la complicidad judicial, la violencia estatal y la impunidad desafían aún hoy a la democracia argentina. Y propone, además, caminos concretos para que el avance de la democratización institucional actúe también en el ámbito del Poder Judicial.
