Abstract

JARA GOMEZ, Ana María. Globalization, Transnationality and Unprotectedness of Human Rights. Rev. mex. cienc. polít. soc [online]. 2020, vol.65, n.238, pp.19-47.  Epub Feb 05, 2021. ISSN 0185-1918.  https://doi.org/10.22201/fcpys.2448492xe.2020.238.65576.

Using traditional approaches to human rights, transnational actors are beyond the scope of legislation protecting these rights. Globalization processes have increased the number and typology of these actors, who seem not to be directly bound by human rights norms. The result can be a crisis of the state as the sole protector and transgressor of rights and a need for new approaches that make accountability mechanisms effective. The aim is to defend the efficiency of human rights vis-à-vis third parties and to highlight the need for transparency in the mechanisms surrounding the creation of the Law Merchant.

Keywords : human rights; sovereignty; transnational actors; globalization; “drittwirkung”.
