초록

This study is undertaken to tackle the two critical frontlines of global governance for development aid: (i) translating human rights in the developmental context with the particular emphasis on social rights as a global public good; and (ii) introducing the accountability mechanism as a practical alternative to the organizational failure of legalist approaches. In dealing with the social construction of global governance, the study demonstrates mainly theoretical observations and normative foundations for advancing social rights as an alternative to blind faiths on the hard-core legalism, rather than empirical in-depth analyses. International society is characterized by the absence of world government and no centralized authorities to give sanctions against rule-breakers and also power relations among states. Power, however, is always legitimate only so long as it serves its original purposes, which, in the case of human rights, are the protection of rights and the pursuit of the public good. The manifest lesson from this study is that the new conceptualization of human rights by taking social rights as its soft substitute and the launching of accountability functions into international institutions are both socially constructed by the extended interactions of all parties involved in global governance. Accountability is at the center of institutional processes through which human rights is conceptually specified as a concrete form of social rights, and the implementation methods are reformulated from ideational legal measures to a realistic mechanism to hold agencies more accountable for their activities.

Abstract

This study is undertaken to tackle the two critical frontlines of global governance for development aid: (i) translating human rights in the developmental context with the particular emphasis on social rights as a global public good; and (ii) introducing the accountability mechanism as a practical alternative to the organizational failure of legalist approaches. In dealing with the social construction of global governance, the study demonstrates mainly theoretical observations and normative foundations for advancing social rights as an alternative to blind faiths on the hard-core legalism, rather than empirical in-depth analyses. International society is characterized by the absence of world government and no centralized authorities to give sanctions against rule-breakers and also power relations among states. Power, however, is always legitimate only so long as it serves its original purposes, which, in the case of human rights, are the protection of rights and the pursuit of the public good. The manifest lesson from this study is that the new conceptualization of human rights by taking social rights as its soft substitute and the launching of accountability functions into international institutions are both socially constructed by the extended interactions of all parties involved in global governance. Accountability is at the center of institutional processes through which human rights is conceptually specified as a concrete form of social rights, and the implementation methods are reformulated from ideational legal measures to a realistic mechanism to hold agencies more accountable for their activities.
