Some highlights from @PhilipGAlston’s latest, astounding and necessary, report on human rights and poverty.
6 Jul 2020
The international poverty line "is set so low and arbitrarily as to guarantee a positive result and to enable the United Nations, the World Bank, and many commentators to proclaim a Pyrrhic victory". US poverty (%): national 12.7 IPL 1.2 @PhilipGAlston chrgj.org/wp-content/uploads…

Today we released @PhilipGAlston’s final report as UN Rapporteur on extreme poverty. We found the widespread myth that poverty is being eliminated is unfounded, based on a flawed measure—and that the SDGs are failing on their own terms. A lot more work is needed.
Today I am releasing my final report as UN Special Rapporteur. I find that global poverty is rising, and that a decade of misplaced triumphalism has exacerbated the worst impacts of the pandemic. My statement: chrgj.org/2020/07/05/philip-…. The full report: chrgj.org/wp-content/uploads….

you trying to open an email lately: “I hope you’re well or as well as can be expected in these crazy times etc” Emily Dickinson: “I hope that you have Power and as much of Peace as in our deep existence may be possible. To multiply the Harbors does not reduce the Sea.”

I study paramilitaries. No insignia, no shoulder patches, is bad news. Yesterday I saw images of police badges blackened as they move to supress protest. No clear affiliation and info on wearer is preparation to break the law with #impunity. #paramilitary #accountability

A friend sends this image from the DC streets: paramilitary forces, no unit insignia, no name badges.

A fascinating thread I keep returning to on universal jurisdiction today (including a human trafficking case that may be of interest for those following the development of international criminal law re this specific crime)
A palpable revival of #UniversalJurisdiction is underway in Europe. Here are 7 examples of recent important activities (trials, arrests, investigations) that have taken place only in the last few weeks. There are certainly more that I am unaware of. And certainly more to come.

Migrant domestic workers embody the human subjectivity called forth by neoliberalism -a “resilient subject.” Managing the insecurities of migrant domestic work means working on the “self” rather than addressing legal or regulatory mechanisms. @libertychee academic.oup.com/ips/ips/adv…

This amazing NEW advance article examines the production of resilience in migrant domestic workers as a necessary component of neoliberalism. It is fascinating: “Supermaids”: Hyper-resilient Subjects in Neoliberal Migration Governance by @LibertyChee doi.org/10.1093/ips/olaa009
