Peace, Human Rights and Development in an Evolving World

Keynote Speech at the UN Human Rights Council SOCIAL FORUM – Oct 1, 2012. The focus is on people-centered development–as opposed to system-centered economic growth. And on globalization, a challenging process involving all states and regions, nations and civilizations, humans and nature–as opposed to a globalized market with only three free flows, of capital, goods and services, not labor; increasing the global economic gap.
