Sinossi
Tracing the rise of human-rights issues from the end of World War II, this book is concerned primarily with the international politics of human rights, but also includes a chapter on theoretical issues, including the moral basis of human rights, problems of cultural relativism, and the place of human rights in the contemporary international society of states. There are also case studies of human-rights violations in Chile, Argentina, South Africa, El Salvador and Nicaragua, as well as extensive illustrations drawn from other parts of the world. Throughout the volume, attention is given not only to the realistic emphasis on power and international anarchy, but also to the reality and impact of moral concerns, interdependence, international organizations, and non-governmental organizations.
