From Booklist

Gr. 9^-12. The rights of women, refugees, child laborers, and political prisoners are among the issues debated in this collection of articles and essays in the Opposing Viewpoints series. The focus is on both the U.S. and the universal scene, whether the argument is about the use of land mines or the role of free trade, or on the basic issue of whether human rights and freedom are culturally relative. Contributors from many sides include Hillary Rodham Clinton, Midge Decter, Katha Pollitt, Jimmy Carter, Amnesty International, and the China Internet Information Center, and as always in this series, there are fine bibliographies to stimulate students' further reading.
