The product of an international conference sponsored by the Human Rights Committee of the International Political Science Association, this book tackles the difficult subject of the dynamics behind the fate of human rights in the developing countries. It challenges the conventional wisdom that the fate of human rights is determined by economic forces and conditions. The major theme running throughout the volume is the space for political choice which determines the implementation of internationally recognized human rights, albeit in the context of important historical, social, and economic factors.
