Items related to The United Nations and Human Rights: A Critical Appraisal
Human rights is a principal field of international cooperation in the world of the 1990s. With the United Nations as the central focus of these efforts, the major challenge for the 1990s is to provide effective procedures and mechanisms both for sustained monitoring and for rapid and constructive responses to violations. This work examines the functions, procedures, and performance of each of the major bodies of the United Nations which deal with human rights. They also look at the relationships among the various organs and the potential for major reforms and restructuring.
