Nexus between "Human Rights" and "Environment" in Light of the Developments in International Relations
Document Type : Research Paper
Abstract
The two concepts of "human rights" and "environment" were poorly matters of concern to human-being over the past centuries. The peoples' growing concerns led to the establishment of discrete institutions and adoption of plenty of relevant national, regional and international declarations, legally-binding instruments and regulations for their protection and promotion in recent decades. The ongoing processes and studies disclosed inalienable and undeniable nexus between the two concepts and affected/will affect the rulings of the courts, such as: European Court on Human Rights and International Criminal Court. Although the identification of nexus between human rights and environment is at its preliminary stages, it is predicted that the responsible politicians across the globe have no choice, but to recognize the nexus, while turning a blind eye on the political borders. Despite the complexities therein, it is incumbent upon the diplomats to define further and recognize the environmental-related human rights, such as peoples' right to healthy environment through research and dialogue in international forums, such as: Human Rights Council and environmental gatherings.
