Human Rights and Peacebuilding: Complementary and Contradictory, Complex and Contingent

The question of linking human rights and peacebuilding has been on the academic, policy and practitioner agenda for a considerable time after initially coming to the fore in the 1990s. In recent years, it has gained further impetus following recognition in multiple policy documents that human rights, peace and development are closely related, and that practical efforts should build on such linkages. A certain blurring of boundaries between these domains in practice can indeed be observed. Yet experiences to date indicate that linking human rights and peacebuilding effectively is often easier said than done, in part because endeavours in the two realms can both complement and contradict one another. Serving as the introduction to a Special Issue of the Journal of Human Rights Practice on human rights and peacebuilding, this article discusses such developments, outlining the broader context in which the discussion on human rights and peacebuilding takes place and the importance of engaging with discourses and policies related to statebuilding and development assistance. These shape the conceptualization and implementation of human rights and peacebuilding separately and in relation to one another, both globally and in specific country settings, but to date they have seldom been explicitly considered in relation to the human rights/peacebuilding interface. The article further clarifies the use of the key concepts and discusses three implications of the close relationship between human rights violations and violent conflict, thereby setting the stage for a collection of articles and policy and practice notes on the relationship between human rights and peacebuilding.

人权与建设和平:互补与矛盾、复杂与偶然

将人权与建设和平联系起来的问题在 1990 年代最初出现后,在相当长的一段时间内一直在学术、政策和实践者议程上。近年来,随着多项政策文件承认人权、和平与发展密切相关,务实工作应建立在这种联系之上,这一点得到进一步推动。在实践中确实可以观察到这些领域之间的界限有些模糊。然而,迄今为止的经验表明,将人权与建设和平有效地联系起来往往说起来容易做起来难,部分原因是这两个领域的努力既可以相互补充,也可以相互矛盾。作为《人权实践杂志》关于人权与建设和平的特刊的介绍,本文讨论了这些发展,概述了讨论人权与建设和平的更广泛背景,以及参与与国家建设和发展援助相关的讨论和政策的重要性。这些在全球范围内和在特定国家环境中单独地和相互关联地塑造了人权与建设和平的概念化和实施,但迄今为止,它们很少在人权/建设和平界面方面得到明确考虑。文章进一步阐明了关键概念的使用,并讨论了侵犯人权与暴力冲突之间密切关系的三个含义,
