Improving human rights
In our first paper, we are analyzing the worker’s rights as being part of human rights. The author goes to say of how human rights does little in addressing wealth inequalities. The author begins by describing enactment of the Canadian charter of rights and giving its role in the protection of citizens (Canadians ) from their government actions, therefore, selling us on the idea of the government which is for the people by the people and for the people is also aware that its effects may harm its citizens it, therefore, protects its citizens from itself.
He goes further in showing that the masses do not show a relationship between human rights and the ability to bargain, ask for raises, or even strike, therefore showing a theme of ignorance in our rights. It is, however, controversial that the court respects the power of an individual to speak up when offended. Still, if he or she does so in a group, it is not regarded as a right, but more of a socio-economic system made up of people with similar skills; therefore, the rights don’t hold in such a setting. Moreover, the author gives examples showing how labor movements are moving forward and trying to defend its members as it feels that the courts are not willing or ready to understand workers’ rights as a group adequately, even leaving it up to market forces.
Workers have been forced to look up to the ILO branch of the united nations to make governments change and shape up it, however, has no power whatsoever and the government complies at will it seems that it is a last resort solution for the ineffectiveness of the relevant bodies in this fields.
As the courts become more lenient, it with careful steps that they allow unions to speak up, and employees can now speak more openly; however, the steps are taken slowly to ensure there is no misinterpretation. Canadian unions now prefer to combat in court rather than politically as the courts are now being more receptive and lenient to their claims,.Judicial strategies have proven to be proper elite strategies to neoliberalism, and the charter is rooted in liberal democracy in the second article covering pro-human but anti weak rights of the Indian supreme court. The author describes and gives beyond reasonable doubt the as shown by the court to the poor; the court has been very active in promoting most positive movements and supporting them.
However, judicial activism is still a mirage on a social standpoint where the poor are harshly treated as compared to the wealthy bringing up a theme of the class system. The Indian court must change in a hurry though protecting human rights is no children play the judiciary is part of the state, and it should be foremost first to show support and equality too all without favoring any individual or social class. Lastly, we will check on the civil rights altogether with their making. The author describes how the African Americans were mistreated post world war two here; racism shows its nasty face once again in the work market from this standpoint NAACP lawyers have helped in shaping the law as e know it today.
The move begins during and post-war when the economy is tight; thus, those who are oppressed can adequately see the discrimination they face. Most people felt that they have the right to work, and no one should take it away from them. Coincidentally post world war two the cases are fewer, and therefore the NAACP goes to work closely with the labor unions it was fighting against not so long ago. Consequently, the very foundation that it started as was now fleeting as some labor unions funded the NAACP. Therefore, they could not cut the hand that fed it by suing it as often as they did. Moreover, NAACP raised its membership fees, and thus, in no time, it had reduced its members by more than 60%. This went on to show the preference of a few wealthy clients over many with diverse earning abilities. NAACP had now stopped attacking markets oppressing workers and also stopped caring about the African American’s racial discrimination. NAACP went on to ensure those in education are fairly treated, no matter the race. Its effects, however, have shaped the world we live in.
