“…Although the ATCT Act provides a legal basis for the U.S. to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries with human rights issues, in terms of the social responsibility of MNEs to protect human rights, it is undoubtedly quite positive in that it directly empowers domestic courts to hold domestic corporations accountable for human rights violations abroad, based on treaty obligations under international law [8]. However, researchers should also note that the U.S. ATCT Act is not a panacea.…”

As multinational enterprises continue to develop and grow, violations of international human rights law by multinational enterprises occur frequently, such as environmental damage and labor rights violations. While bringing employment and economic development to the host country, MNEs will also have a significant impact on local human rights. Multinational enterprises may directly affect the human rights in their regions by employing child labor, forced labor, discriminatory recruitment methods, poor working conditions, and carrying out activities without the consent of the residents on their land, or indirectly threaten the lives and health of others by destroying the environment. In addition, MNEs may also instigate the national government to violate human rights for commercial purposes, or support the government to adopt policies that violate human rights by providing infrastructure, financial support, or international credibility for the government, thus indirectly violating the human rights of residents. Access to justice is the most direct way for victims to seek redress in cases of human rights violations by multinational enterprises. However, as far as current practice is concerned, the judicial route is also the most difficult route to relief, of which the first issue to be resolved is jurisdiction. This research use case study, comparative research, and historical research to discuss how to strengthen the international legal regime of human rights responsibilities of MNEs, and to draw on international theoretical and practical experiences. Finally, this research systematically studies the issue and finally makes recommendations at the international and domestic levels.

“…The words tenfold way in the title refer to the fact that there are ten classical real Lie groups when we include the complex classical groups considered over the reals. We should note that the tenfold way has many other manifestations in mathematics and physics which are well described on John Baez' web-page [61] (see especially [62][63][64] for applications to solid state physics). Our approach differs from others since we use noncompact Lie groups which is essential in the holography applications.…”

Tenfold Way for Holography : AdS/CFT and Beyond

The main purpose of the present paper is to lay the foundations of generalizing the AdS/CFT (holography) idea beyond the conformal setting. The main tool is to find suitable realizations of the bulk and boundary via group theory. We use all ten families of classical real semisimple Lie groups G and Lie algebras G. For this are used several group and algebra decompositions: the global Iwasawa decomposition and the local Bruhat and Sekiguchilike decomposititions. The same analysis is applied to the exceptional real semisimple Lie algebras.

A musical was written by Lin Manuel Miranda and the show first premiered on the Wesleyan University campus at the 92 Theater during Manuel's time as an undergraduate at Wesleyan. If interested in learning more about the immigrant history of Washington Heights, and what influenced the musical, and now movie, then please refer to: Smithsonian Magazine, "The Immigrant History of the NYC Neighborhood behind 'in the Heights'," Smithsonian.com (Smithsonian Institution, June 10, 2021), https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/immigrant-history-new-york-citys-washington-heights-180977936/. 3 There are many definitions for the phrase, "people of color" but this specific definition was pulled from the Student Affairs' website of Clemson University: "Students of Color," Students of Color | CASE | Division of Student Affairs | Clemson University | Clemson University Student Affairs, https://www.clemson.edu/studentaffairs/case/students-of-color.html.
