This article takes issue with the argument that human rights are not absolute and should be balanced in relation to competing communal aims. The balancing of qualified human rights is a key practice of the European Court of Human Rights and a great deal depends on a clear analysis of the ramifications of balancing for our understanding of human rights aims. The author does not seek to propose an alternative to balancing, but aims to show that it is not necessarily coherent with human rights principles or the kinds of functions international human rights institutions are thought to perform.
Coming to Terms with Forced Migration: Post-Displacement Restitution of Citizenship Rights in Turkey
(2007)
During the armed conflict in the Eastern and Southeastern Anatolian regions of Turkey between 1984 and 1999, a large wave of internal displacement took place. In the mid-1990s, national human rights organizations prepared reports to bring to public attention that hundreds of thousands of people had been evicted from their rural homes. However, at that time the displacement did not attract the attention that it deserved from the media and public opinion in Turkey. Most importantly, public institutions did not take any measures to address the problems of internally displaced persons (“IDPs”).Based on an analysis of secondary sources and qualitative fieldwork, this book assesses this phenomenon within a conceptual framework at both national and international levels as well as within the political and socio-economic circumstances specific to Turkey.
The central research question this report addresses is whether and if so to what extent the ECHR and the ECtHR case law served to enhance the protection in Turkey of human rights in general and minority rights in particular. In doing so, the critical role the EU accession process has played in this regard by exerting external political pressure on the Turkish Government will be evaluated as a major positive variable. The report assesses the nature of claims raised by minorities and minority rights advocates. It seeks to offer an initial analysis of the efforts by authorities to implement the ECtHR case law through general and individual measures
Kooperative Politikberatung: Ein neues Beziehungsgeflecht zwischen Politik und Politikberatung?
(2007)
Der Beitrag untersucht den Einfluss veränderter Governance-Strukturen auf die Politikberatung. Zunächst resümiert der Beitrag die bisherigen Positionen zum Verhältnis von Wissenschaft und Politik, welche allesamt aus der Sicht der Wissenschaft argumentieren. Danach erfolgt ein Perspektivwechsel. Der Beitrag betrachtet das Phänomen Politikberatung nicht aus der Perspektive der Wissenschaft, sondern aus der Sicht der Politik und versteht Politikberatung als eine outgesourcte Leistung, die von der Politik bei Bedarf einzuholen ist, aber kaum noch von ihr selbst erbracht wird. Die anschließend entwickelten Fragestellungen verfolgen das Ziel, der wissenschaftlichen Diskussion über Politikberatung neue Impulse zu geben.
