International Human Rights: Text & Materials is an indispensable guide and source of reference for international human rights issues. It is centred on those groups who have been internationally acknowledged as particularly vulnerable and in need of protection.
The format of the first edition has been retained but has been expanded to take account of, for example, the creation of the International Criminal Court, the International Labour Organisation's Convention pertaining to the Worst Forms of Child Labour, possible ways of handling the ever-growing international refugee problem, and pertinent international jurisprudence. The salient materials are accompanied by the authors' critical commentary and analysis.
