초록

After the Second World War, the United Nations has been working to protect and promote human rights all over the world, but the concerned focus on human rights has become more important and given rise to challenge to the universal human rights system. As a matter of fact, several regional initiatives for the protection and promotion of human rights have been contributing parallel with the universal human rights system. There are three major regional human rights mechanism existing in the present world such as the European human rights mechanism which is established under auspices of the Council of Europe (COE), the Inter-American human rights mechanism which is established under the auspices of the Organization of American States (OAS) and the African human rights mechanism which is established under the auspices of the African Union (AU). In fact, the regional human rights mechanism compared to the universal human rights mechanism is appeared as one of the effective human rights protection system ensuring justice in the different region of the present world. Unfortunately, Asia which is the largest continent in the world could not establish regional human rights mechanism like Europe, Inter-America and Africa because of its cultural diversities, political conflicts and so on. Therefore, it is crucially important to identify the reasons or factors why Asia is randomly failing to establish human rights mechanism in Asia. For that, we have analysed those reasons and factors throughout the paper and come into the conclusion that the institutional, the procedural and the functional developments of the human rights mechanism for Asia should not be the same as European, Inter-American or African human rights mechanisms. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to show a direction for establishing an appropriate human rights mechanism in Asia finding the initial problems, present crises and different barriers along with the proper possible solutions and suggestions.

Abstract

After the Second World War, the United Nations has been working to protect and promote human rights all over the world, but the concerned focus on human rights has become more important and given rise to challenge to the universal human rights system. As a matter of fact, several regional initiatives for the protection and promotion of human rights have been contributing parallel with the universal human rights system. There are three major regional human rights mechanism existing in the present world such as the European human rights mechanism which is established under auspices of the Council of Europe (COE), the Inter-American human rights mechanism which is established under the auspices of the Organization of American States (OAS) and the African human rights mechanism which is established under the auspices of the African Union (AU). In fact, the regional human rights mechanism compared to the universal human rights mechanism is appeared as one of the effective human rights protection system ensuring justice in the different region of the present world. Unfortunately, Asia which is the largest continent in the world could not establish regional human rights mechanism like Europe, Inter-America and Africa because of its cultural diversities, political conflicts and so on. Therefore, it is crucially important to identify the reasons or factors why Asia is randomly failing to establish human rights mechanism in Asia. For that, we have analysed those reasons and factors throughout the paper and come into the conclusion that the institutional, the procedural and the functional developments of the human rights mechanism for Asia should not be the same as European, Inter-American or African human rights mechanisms. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to show a direction for establishing an appropriate human rights mechanism in Asia finding the initial problems, present crises and different barriers along with the proper possible solutions and suggestions.
