How Artificial Intelligence Systems Challenge the Conceptual Foundations of the Human Rights Legal Framework 人工智能系统如何挑战人权法律框架的概念基础

ABSTRACT Few recent developments have captured the human imagination as much as those within the field of artificial intelligence (AI). The increasing pervasiveness and ubiquity of AI affect both individual lives and society at large. Yet the human rights concerns raised in connection to AI have primarily concentrated around infringements of enumerated discrete rights, such as to privacy, non-discrimination, and freedom of expression and information. While it is important to examine the discrete rights under threat, a fundamental disconnect is present at the foundational level between human rights and AI, because AI systems increasingly challenge the notions of how, by whom, and what human rights violations are being committed. This paper takes a problem-finding perspective and argues that the conceptual foundations of the human rights protection framework are facing a serious challenge. The legal-positivist framing of the discrete rights themselves is examined through an analysis of the misaligned harm typology between the objects of human rights protection and the threats posed by AI systems. The paper highlights three main misalignments, from the perspective of saliency, temporality, and causality of harms, and argues that these misalignments challenge the structural enabling conditions for the exercise and meaningful protection of human rights.
近年来,很少有像人工智能(AI)领域的发展那样吸引了人类的想象力。人工智能的日益普及和无处不在影响着个人生活和整个社会。然而,与人工智能相关的人权问题主要集中在侵犯列举的离散权利,如隐私、不歧视、言论和信息自由。虽然检查受到威胁的离散权利很重要,但人权与人工智能之间在基础层面上存在根本脱节,因为人工智能系统越来越多地挑战侵犯人权的方式、由谁实施以及侵犯人权的内容。本文从问题发现的角度出发,认为人权保护框架的概念基础正面临严峻挑战。通过对人权保护对象与人工智能系统构成的威胁之间不一致的伤害类型的分析,研究了离散权利本身的法律实证主义框架。从危害的显著性、暂时性和因果性的角度,本文强调了三种主要的错位,并认为这些错位挑战了行使和有意义地保护人权的结构性有利条件。

Pushing Boundaries: Building a Community of Practice at the Intersection of Human Rights and Economics 推动边界:在人权和经济的交叉点建立一个实践社区

ABSTRACT One criticism of the human rights framework is that it has not – and therefore, some argue, cannot – meaningfully contest the hegemony of neoliberal economic thinking. In this article, we argue that the manner in which the disciplines of human rights and economics ‘speak past each other’ is a critical factor in this perception. While there has been a notable push to strengthen interrelations between the two fields, for the most part this has primarily been through the application of human rights norms to specific economic issues, rather than as a challenge to the logic underpinning economics, as a discipline. The article draws from a year-long project to build a community of practice at the nexus of human rights and economic justice, primarily in South Africa. South Africa is an illustrative context in which to explore cross-disciplinary engagement. While it has one of the most progressive constitutions in the world and a vibrant human rights community, the government has neglected rights in economic policymaking. This article considers the theoretical, methodological, and strategic opportunities and challenges involved overcoming such contradictions. In particular, we argue for the usefulness of a law and political economy (LPE) approach to build out the interrelations between the two fields.
对人权框架的一种批评是,它没有——因此,一些人认为,不能——有意义地挑战新自由主义经济思想的霸权。在这篇文章中,我们认为,人权和经济学学科“彼此说话”的方式是这种看法的关键因素。虽然在加强这两个领域之间的相互关系方面作出了显著的努力,但在很大程度上,这主要是通过将人权规范应用于具体的经济问题,而不是作为一门学科对支撑经济学的逻辑提出挑战。这篇文章来自于一个为期一年的项目,该项目主要在南非建立一个人权与经济正义联系的实践社区。南非是探索跨学科参与的一个说明性背景。虽然它拥有世界上最进步的宪法之一,也有一个充满活力的人权团体,但政府在制定经济政策时忽视了权利。本文将从理论上、方法上和战略上探讨克服这些矛盾所带来的机遇和挑战。特别是,我们认为法律和政治经济学(LPE)方法在建立两个领域之间的相互关系方面是有用的。

From the Vantage Point of Vulnerability Theory: Algorithmic Decision-Making and Access to the European Court of Human Rights 从脆弱性理论的角度:算法决策和进入欧洲人权法院

ABSTRACT The past two decades at the European Court of Human Rights have been marked by various efforts to reduce its backlog of cases through changing the substantive, procedural, and formal practices surrounding access to the Court. Proposals aimed at facilitating these efforts have also rested on the unarticulated premise that solving the ECtHR's backlog problem necessarily involves an either-or choice between improving the Court's efficiency and shrinking individual access to it. This article departs from that premise. Drawing on Martha Fineman's ‘theory of vulnerability’ and her vision for social justice, the article lays out a proposal that allows for the coexistence of efficiency and individual access through a hybrid decision-making (HDM) model. First, we show that from a vulnerability theory perspective, better access to human rights courts is a key component of a just human rights system. Second, we argue that in order to be just, procedures need to be context-sensitive and adopted in ways that acknowledge humans' inherent vulnerability. To support the argument, we draw inspiration from the African Court on Human and Peoples' Rights, whose current practices help illustrate the point that more equitable access to justice need not be a relic of the past.
在过去的二十年中,欧洲人权法院做出了各种努力,通过改变有关进入法院的实质性、程序性和正式做法来减少案件积压。旨在促进这些努力的建议也建立在一个没有明确说明的前提之上,即解决欧洲人权法院的积压问题必然涉及在提高法院效率和减少个人利用法院之间作出非此即彼的选择。这篇文章背离了这个前提。借鉴玛莎·费曼(Martha Fineman)的“脆弱性理论”和她对社会正义的愿景,文章提出了一个建议,通过混合决策(HDM)模型,允许效率和个人访问共存。首先,从脆弱性理论的角度来看,更好地诉诸人权法院是公正的人权制度的关键组成部分。其次,我们认为,为了做到公正,程序需要对环境敏感,并以承认人类固有脆弱性的方式采用。为了支持这一论点,我们从非洲人权和人民权利法院得到启发,该法院目前的做法有助于说明,更公平的诉诸司法的机会不一定是过去的遗物。

Preventing Disasters and Displacement: How Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights Can Advance Local Resilience 预防灾害和流离失所:经济、社会和文化权利如何促进地方恢复力

Abstract This article builds on the widespread recognition that disaster is not a ‘natural’ phenomenon but occurs where exposure to a particular hazard coincides with pre-existing vulnerabilities to it—which might be social, economic or environmental—to increase personal susceptibility to harm. It argues that the impacts of climate change impose an increasingly pressing need to revive the realisation of economic, social and cultural rights as a priority, not only through their express incorporation into disaster risk planning, policies and domestic law, but by rethinking how they are implemented to include and empower the people who need them most.
这篇文章建立在一个广泛的认识之上,即灾难不是一种“自然”现象,而是发生在暴露于特定危险的同时,同时又存在着对它的脆弱性——可能是社会的、经济的或环境的——从而增加个人对伤害的易感性。报告认为,气候变化的影响使我们越来越迫切地需要恢复经济、社会和文化权利的实现,将其作为优先事项,不仅要将其明确纳入灾害风险规划、政策和国内法,而且要重新思考如何实施这些权利,使最需要这些权利的人包括在内,并赋予他们权力。

The Future is Now: Climate Cases Before the ECtHR 未来就是现在:欧洲人权法院审理的气候案件

ABSTRACT This article evaluates the potential role of the European Court of Human Rights in adjudicating cases related to climate change. The Court is currently facing its first four climate applications, and addressing them is more than a routine process of applying existing case law. These cases speak to fundamental questions regarding the Court’s engagement with systemic problems, politically and technically challenging issues, and its own subsidiarity to state decision-making. Looking at recent environmental case law, this article identifies and discusses various possible futures for the Court’s approach to climate cases, including from admissibility, substantive, and remedial perspectives. It also considers the tendencies and factors influencing the Court’s potential response to climate claims. This includes its docket crisis, its evolution towards a ‘procedural turn’, and its approach to the balancing of competing interests and its selection of the appropriate level of scrutiny. We conclude that the Court must contribute to the search for a modus vivendi that permits competing interests to coexist and ensures a liveable future. This is not only a question of ensuring future enjoyment of human rights, but also of safeguarding the Court’s own ability to carry out its role and to thrive into the future.
本文评估了欧洲人权法院在裁决与气候变化有关的案件中的潜在作用。最高法院目前正面临其首批四项气候申请,处理这些申请不仅仅是适用现有判例法的例行程序。这些案件涉及到一些基本问题,包括最高法院如何处理系统性问题、政治和技术上具有挑战性的问题,以及最高法院对国家决策的辅助作用。回顾最近的环境判例法,本文确定并讨论了法院处理气候案件的各种可能的未来,包括从可采性、实质性和补救角度。它还考虑了影响法院对气候索赔的潜在反应的趋势和因素。这包括它的摘要危机,它向“程序转向”的演变,以及它平衡竞争利益的方法和选择适当的审查水平。我们的结论是,法院必须为寻求一种允许相互竞争的利益共存并确保一个宜居的未来的权宜之计作出贡献。这不仅是一个确保今后享有人权的问题,而且也是一个保障法院本身履行其作用和在未来蓬勃发展的能力的问题。

Special Issue: The Future of Human Rights 特刊:人权的未来

What may the future hold for human rights? The Nordic Journal of Human Rights (NJHR) – a leading forum for interdisciplinary exchanges on human rights in the Nordic region and beyond – is celebrating its 40th anniversary. Its Editorial Office decided to honour the occasion with a special issue on ‘The Future of Human Rights’. In our call for papers, we invited submissions that provide insights on the future development of human rights and that are theoretically informed, empirically grounded, and methodologically rigorous in their ambitions to advance not only the academic study of human rights, but also its relevance to reflective practice in the real world. These papers would eventually set agendas and advance new potential lines of inquiry. True to the multiand inter-disciplinary approach of both the journal and the subject of human rights, we encouraged and welcomed contributions drawing from different disciplines. Looking back at the past 40 years of the existence of our journal, it is evident that human rights – as a legal, political, and social practice – have experienced significant achievements and successes, some notable setbacks and failures, and numerous unprecedented and unforeseen events and developments. Likewise, the academic study of human rights has matured and become increasingly specialised. Part of that development is also expressed in the articles and special issues published by the journal. From its establishment in 1982 as the Scandinavian-language journal Mennesker og Rettigheter, to its eventual consolidation as the Englishlanguage Nordic Journal of Human Rights in 2010, the journal has become one of the leading publications and fora for academic discourse in the field. Yet, rather than retrospectively summarising these 40 years, we use(d) the occasion to invite scholars and practitioners to prospectively conjecture about what the coming decades may hold for human rights, to discern where current trends are likely to lead, and to make sense of the future they herald. Speculating about the future, let alone predicting it, is a daunting task for academic researchers and practitioners alike. Human rights seem to be permanently at a crossroads and are frequently subjected to scepticism, even harsh criticism. According to some scholars, the idea of human rights has failed to deliver on its radical promise of emancipation. Some even argue that human rights are instruments for dominating and oppressing the very populations they are meant to protect – that the powers-that-be can use the discourse of human rights to justify colonialism, warfare, and attacks on civilians. Yet the ideal of human rights continues to inspire not only academic criticism, but also real-world activism to
人权的未来会怎样?《北欧人权杂志》(NJHR)是北欧地区及其他地区跨学科人权交流的主要论坛,它正在庆祝创刊40周年。其编辑部决定以“人权的未来”特刊来纪念这一时刻。在我们的论文征集中,我们邀请提交的论文提供了对人权未来发展的见解,并且在理论上有依据,有经验基础,在方法上严谨,不仅要推进人权的学术研究,而且要与现实世界中的反思实践相关联。这些论文最终将设定议程,并推进新的潜在研究方向。我们本着期刊和人权主题的多学科和跨学科方法,鼓励并欢迎来自不同学科的投稿。回顾我们杂志过去40年的存在,很明显,人权——作为一项法律、政治和社会实践——经历了重大的成就和成功,也经历了一些明显的挫折和失败,以及许多前所未有的和不可预见的事件和发展。同样,对人权的学术研究也日趋成熟和专业化。这一发展也部分体现在该杂志发表的文章和特刊上。从1982年作为斯堪的纳维亚语期刊Mennesker og Rettigheter成立,到2010年最终合并为英语期刊Nordic journal of Human Rights,该期刊已成为该领域学术论述的主要出版物和论坛之一。然而,我们不是回顾总结这40年,而是利用这个机会邀请学者和实践者前瞻性地推测未来几十年对人权的影响,辨别当前趋势可能导致的结果,并理解它们预示的未来。对学术研究人员和从业者来说,推测未来是一项艰巨的任务,更不用说预测未来了。人权似乎永远处于十字路口,经常受到怀疑,甚至是严厉的批评。一些学者认为,人权理念未能实现其解放的激进承诺。有些人甚至认为,人权是统治和压迫它们本来要保护的人群的工具——当权者可以用人权的话语来为殖民主义、战争和对平民的攻击辩护。然而,人权的理想不仅继续激发学术批评,而且还激发了现实世界的行动主义

In our call for papers, we invited submissions that provide insights on the future development of human rights and that are theoretically informed, empirically grounded, and methodologically rigorous in their ambitions to advance not only the academic study of human rights, but also its relevance to reflective practice in the real world. These papers would eventually set agendas and advance new potential lines of inquiry. True to the multiand inter-disciplinary approach of both the journal and the subject of human rights, we encouraged and welcomed contributions drawing from different disciplines. Looking back at the past 40 years of the existence of our journal, it is evident that human rights – as a legal, political, and social practice – have experienced significant achievements and successes, some notable setbacks and failures, and numerous unprecedented and unforeseen events and developments. Likewise, the academic study of human rights has matured and become increasingly specialised. Part of that development is also expressed in the articles and special issues published by the journal. From its establishment in 1982 as the Scandinavian-language journal Mennesker og Rettigheter, to its eventual consolidation as the Englishlanguage Nordic Journal of Human Rights in 2010, the journal has become one of the leading publications and fora for academic discourse in the field. Yet, rather than retrospectively summarising these 40 years, we use(d) the occasion to invite scholars and practitioners to prospectively conjecture about what the coming decades may hold for human rights, to discern where current trends are likely to lead, and to make sense of the future they herald. Speculating about the future, let alone predicting it, is a daunting task for academic researchers and practitioners alike. Human rights seem to be permanently at a crossroads and are frequently subjected to scepticism, even harsh criticism. According to some scholars, the idea of human rights has failed to deliver on its radical promise of emancipation. Some even argue that human rights are instruments for dominating and oppressing the very populations they are meant to protect – that the powers-that-be can use the discourse of human rights to justify colonialism, warfare, and attacks on civilians. Yet the ideal of human rights continues to inspire not only academic criticism, but also real-world activism to","PeriodicalId":42311,"journal":{"name":"Nordic Journal of Human Rights","volume":"88 1","pages":"1 - 12"},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82189517","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
