ABSTRACT
The racism and discriminatory intent that permits practices that ignore human rights were acknowledged clearly in the Principles of Nuremberg, beyond crimes against peace and war crimes: Article 6. Although overt racism is going out of fashion, and civil rights movements at home and anti-colonial movements abroad undercut the legitimacy of racial exclusion and discrimination, global apartheid is now imposed, separating the global North from the global South. In 1982, the UN Human Rights Commission and the Economic and Social Council approved the establishment of a working group on Indigenous Populations under the Subcommission of Prevention of Discrimination and the Protection of Minorities. The presence of a superpower determined, against law, traditional state power, and the moral principles of civilized nations, to impose the primacy of its own economic interests over all else, demonstrates the reason why ecointegrity is deliberately marginalized together with most aspects of human rights.
