Abstract: In addition to the Charter of the Organization of American States, the American Treaty of Pacific Settlement (the Pact of Bogotá), the Economic Agreement of Bogotá, the Inter-American Convention on the Granting of Civil Rights to Women, and the Inter-American Convention on the Granting of Political Rights to Women, the conference approved several resolutions and recommendations. Among these were included a resolution which established the Inter-American Juridical Committee as the Permanent Committee of the Inter-American Council of Jurists; one which provided for a survey of inter-American specialized organizations in order to determine which ones should be discontinued and which ones maintained; an agreement to convoke an Economic Conference of the Organization of American States in Buenos Aires in late 1948 or early 1949; and a resolution calling for a meeting of representatives of the Inter-American Economic and Social Council and the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America to draft a formula for the functioning of the two organizations Mid to outline their respective fields of activity. Recommendations were made concerning working conditions, improvement of social services, and the achievement of social justice in the American republics; an Inter-American Charter of Social Guarantees to protect workers was adopted by the conference, as well as the American Declaration of the Rights and Duties of Man. The conference also approved the statute of the Inter-American Commission of Women; Two further resolutions were passed, one condemning international communism, or any other totalitarian doctrine, and a second creating an American Committee on Dependent Territories.
