22. Human Rights, but with CPC Characteristics, Rising in China's Foreign Policy
- Author:

- Publication Date:

- Content Type:
- Working Paper
- Institution:
- The Polish Institute of International Affairs
- Abstract:
- For China, human rights in relation to a sovereignty is gaining importance in its cooperation with countries of the Global South. The Chinese authorities emphasise the right of governments to make their own decisions in this area, which is welcomed by many of these, mainly authoritarian, states. For the EU, it is important both to counter the Chinese narrative on such disparities in human rights standards and to apply sanctions against China in cases of violations.

- Abstract:
- Western Sahara’s “frozen conflict” is one of the major and forgotten issues that, so far, the international community could not settle. This article aims to shed light on the historical events and the political responsibilities that led to a protracted stalemate over the Sahrawi question. The paper retraces the historical roots of the claims over the disputed territory by the Polisario Front, as the representative of the Sahrawi people, over the disputed territory, and analyzes their foundations under the light of international law.

- Abstract:
- The bilateral relationship between the U.S. and Israel has effectively blinded it to the most detrimental factors to the dissolution of the peace-brokering process, most notably the impact of Israeli occupation on Palestinian sovereignty and the legitimacy of international human rights law. Host Sahar Aziz (https://saharazizlaw.com/) will discuss these complex dynamics with author and political scientist Khaled Elgindy by decentering a unilateral perspective on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict from a socio-historical lens.

- Abstract:
- The One State Reality argues that a one state reality already predominates in the territories controlled by the state of Israel. The One State Reality forces a reconsideration of foundational concepts such as state, sovereignty, and nation, encourages different readings of history, and provides context for confronting uncomfortable questions such as whether Israel/Palestine is an "apartheid state."

- Institution:
- Weatherhead East Asian Institute, Columbia University
- Abstract:
- Thomas Parks discusses his new book "Southeast Asia’s Multipolar Future: Averting a New Cold War," in which he argues that Southeast Asia is emerging as an open, autonomous region where small and mid-level powers can maintain their sovereignty and shape the regional order. The book further contends that Southeast Asian countries also have a remarkable capacity to manage asymmetrical relations and balance external powers, and predicts that the region's future will look entirely different from its Cold War past. Speaker: Thomas Parks, Vice President, the Asia Foundation Moderator: Ann Marie Murphy, Adjunct Senior Research Scholar; Professor and Director, Center for Foreign Policy Studies, School of Diplomacy and International Relations, Seton Hall University Hosted by the Weatherhead East Asian Institute and co-sponsored by the Asia Foundation and NYSEAN.

- Abstract:
- The total stalemate in resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict requires new thinking and weaning off of old paradigms. Currently as the result of the Hamas attack on October 7, the ensuring war in Gaza, and the deterioration of security in the occupied West Bank, the relations between the Israelis and the Palestinians are at their worst since 1948 and seem the least conducive to a new a peace process. However, events have demonstrated to the international community that allowing this conflict to fester has had disastrous consequences not only for Israelis and Palestinians, but it has also had far-reaching implications across the region and the rest of the international community. This paper argues that an important step to break the deadlock is recognition of Palestinian statehood by individual countries and by international organizations, in particular the UN Security Council. Such recognition should incentivize both sides to negotiate peace based on a two-state solution, as it would overcome the asymmetry in the negotiations between a recognized state and movement representing its people. It will empower the pragmatic elements in both societies who are invested in peace, and will also send a clear message of sincerity from the international community that a two-state solution is the one it is behind and it will support.
