Riassunto

Geoffrey Robertson QC tells the dramatic story of how the human rights idea has come to dominate world politics. He reveals how human rights has penetrated the legal armour of the sovereign State. He sets out, without legal jargon, the rights of humankind at the millennium. And he predicts what this movement has in store -- not only for tyrants and torturers, but also for the superpowers which remain truculent in the face of demands for universal justice.
