| dc.description.notes | Journal of the DVRC Inc.<br/ >Discusses Australia’s past, present and future relationship with the United Nations human rights system, arguing that, although we have made strong efforts in the international arena, our domestic record is far from commendable. Suggests Australia has not implemented fully any of its commitments under the various Covenants and treaties to which it is a party, providing examples of ways in which the State continues to violate certain human rights of Australian citizens, particularly indigenous people, women and children. Identifies three ‘strands’ of Australia’s reluctance to fulfil its international obligations: unnecessary emphasis on the Federal system of government, misconceptions regarding the true nature of democracy and an emerging political climate of ‘patriotic isolationism’. Argues recent reforms and press releases initiated by the Federal Government do not provide a platform for genuine dialogue between international bodies, government and non-government organisations. | en |
