WUN forges a new global alliance to examine the changing and challenging relations in the Asia-Pacific region.
With the rise of East Asian economies and the proliferation of free trade agreements (FTAs) in recent years nations are increasingly competing for a share of the Asian ecomic ‘miracle’ within a complex set of regional, transregional and bilateral trade agreements often described as a ‘spaghetti bowl’. The current global economic crisis is changing the topography of capital flows and investment often with significant impacts on local economies, communities and international relations. This is the context into which the new WUN Asia-Pacific International relations research group held their inaugural workshop at the University of Gaudalajara (UdG) in Mexico. Mexico has amongst the highest number of FTA partners in the world, is on the doorstep of the world’s most powerful economy but where shifting trade flows forces has led to unease especially at the problematic pace of economic integration with East Asia.

The aim of the research is to review critically the International Criminal Court’s recent progress and achievements in victims’ access, participation and reparations, seven years after the Rome Treaty’s entry into force.
International and Comparative Criminal Justice Network (ICCJnet) is pleased to announce that the Worldwide Universities Network (WUN) Fellowship for 2010 has been awarded to Dr Ilaria Bottigliero.
The aim of the research is to review critically the International Criminal Court’s recent progress and achievements in victims’ access, participation and reparations, seven years after the Rome Treaty’s entry into force. This will be done by examining not only the strictly procedural aspects of reparation mechanisms, but also broader issues such as the role of victims and survivors of major human rights violations in international judicial processes, the place of judicial and quasi-judicial redress mechanisms in modern restorative justice and victimology theories, as well as the value of victims’ redress in countries engaged in peace-building and reconciliation efforts.
