This research analyzes mechanisms fostering states’ compliance to
international treaties. It argues that a treaty accountability network
surrounds states when they commit to an international covenant and that actors
belonging to the network have leverage on states to hold them accountable.
This study is particularly interested in the role NGOs and IOs play as actors
within this network. It identifies two main ways for holding states
accountable: direct and indirect. Indirect accountability is conceptualized as
mechanisms where aid recipients are empowered by organizations and will
henceforth hold their states accountable. This research provides a small-N
case-study on the UNCRC, maps the treaty accountability network surrounding
it, identifies accountability mechanisms developed by one IO (UNICEF) and one
NGO (Terre des Hommes Suisse) and examines pathways used by one state
(Switzerland). We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Vahabzadeh Foundation for
financially supporting the publication of best works by young researchers of
the Graduate Institute, giving a priority to those who have been awarded
academic prizes for their master’s dissertations.
