| Summary/Abstract |
This article examines the Kenya Colony administration’s use of communal labor as a punitive, coercive labor practice during the Mau Mau rebellion of the 1950s. Faced with the Mau Mau rebellion, the administration transformed the preexisting communal labor system and began to use it on an unprecedented scale as a form of collective punishment against the mainly Kikuyu African civilian populations thought to be in collusion with the Mau Mau guerrillas. Communal labor, which was previously justified as a building block of development and used widely throughout the colony as cooperative village labor, now became an aspect of the punitive “rehabilitation” of the Kikuyu populace in Central Province. Although colonial officials directed Emergency communal labor against all of the African civilians living in the rural areas of Central Province thought to be in tacit support of Mau Mau, women were the corps of most of the communal labor work parties. As a result, this article examines the role of gender in the British administration’s wielding of communal labor as a punitive measure in Central Province during this time period. This window into the machinations of communal forced labor also sheds more light on the wider issue of gender and forced labor during the colonial period in Africa.

| Summary/Abstract |
Why and how did the International Labor Organization and the military junta of Myanmar transform their relationship so dramatically, from confrontation to cooperation, between 2007 and 2010? What insights can be drawn from this case regarding the successful operation of an international organization in an authoritarian environment? By investigating the evolution of the military leadership’s perception, this article aims to demystify authoritarian decision-making and identify the interactive mechanisms operating between internal and external dynamics and between an authoritarian regime and an international organization. The qualitative fieldwork includes direct interviews with former top military government leaders, who provide valuable insights into the decision-making logic at the highest level.

| Summary/Abstract |
1. Justice Louise Arbor, the former UN Commissioner for Human Rights
in her address at the opening of 61
st
session of the Commission on
Human Rights emphasized the role of the Judiciary in the enforcement
of Human Rights. She said, "Courts the world over have been playing
an increasingly vital role in enforcing social and economic rights,
bringing them from the realms of charity to the reach of justice, linking
them and developing a body of ever-growing jurisprudence by which
we can be guided in bringing these vital rights to the reality of peoples'
lives". In order to understand the impact of international law, and in
particular, international human rights law on judicial decision-making,
one needs to look at the ways in which public international law has
affected decision-making in several jurisdictions around the world.
