\nHuman Rights Treaties have a number of purposes, but core to their value is the issue of compliance. While countries may ratify treaties, they only have a practical impact if domestic legislation, policies and practices facilitate compliance to their provisions. In the following reading, Hafner-Burton examines this issue.\n<\/p>\n

Emilie M. Hafner-Burton, \u2018Human Rights in a Globalizing World: The Paradox of Empty Promises\u2019, American Journal of Sociology 110, No. 5 (March 2005), pp. 1373-1411.<\/a>\n<\/p>\n
