Whilst advances in biotechnology and information technology have
undoubtedly resulted in better quality of life for mankind, they
can also bring about global problems. The legal response to the
challenges caused by the rapid progress of technological change has
been slow and the question of how international human rights should
be protected and promoted with respect to science and technology
remains unexplored. The contributors to this book explore the
political discourse and power relations of technological growth and
human rights issues between the Global South and the Global North
and uncover the different perspectives of both regions. They
investigate the conflict between technology and human rights and
the perpetuation of inequality and subjection of the South to the
North. With emerging economies such as Brazil playing a major role
in trade, investment and financial law, the book examines how human
rights are affected in Southern countries and identifies
significant challenges to reform in the areas of international law
and policy.
