Description and Table of Contents
Description
This book examines the causes and consequences of the emerging relationship between security and human rights. It is divided into two parts that deal with the relationship of security and human rights to states and to societies. What is the theoretical linkage between security and human rights? How has this linkage evolved within the context of East-West relations? What was the role of the Helsinki process in shaping this evolution? How do these issues affect the difficult transition from dictatorship to pluralism in countries facing the challenge of ethnic, economic, and social dislocation? The contributors to this volume seek to deepen our understanding of the forces that brought about the collapse of communism in Europe, and they explore the broader implications of the changes for the emerging post-Cold War international order.
