Human rights and wrongs : slavery, terror, genocide
"Human Rights and Wrongs" explains the persistence of crimes against humanity since the Holocaust???including slavery, terror, and genocide. Using extended country descriptions and analyses, the book goes beyond case studies to explain such gross human rights violations in terms of an integrated theory of life integrity, giving readers vivid illustrations in addition to a theoretical framework. Distinguished author Helen Fein then asks how we can arrest human wrongs and discusses whether democracy is the answer. She shows the positive links among human rights, freedom, and development and draws out policy recommendations from her findings. Includes bibliographical references (pages 238-262) and index. viii, 280 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm
