Opis

Leading specialists and activists from Russia and the USA join, in this volume, to offer a searching assessment of human rights in their own countries and in the world at large. They reflect on past history, present problems associated with system breakdown and decline, and the obstacles and opportunities on the way to the realisation of human rights in this uncertain post-Cold War era and the millennium that is now dawning. The participants in the discussions detailed here include Yelena Bonner, Viktor Chkhikvadze, Norman Dorsen, Riane Eisler, David Forsythe, Paula Garb, Charles Henry, Susan Heuman, Irina Lediakh, Vladimir Kudriavtsev, Pavel Litvinov, Richard Schifter, Henry Shue, Evgenii Skripilev, Vladimir Vlashihin, Oleg Vorobiev and the editors.

Spis treści

Utilizing primary sources, including speeches by Klan leaders and regional and national Klan newspapers, pamphlets and books, this text seeks to go beyond the superficial accounts of the Klan's hostility to various groups to include: what Klan members thought and said; why particular segments of the population were attracted by Klan ideology; and the appeal of the Klan to white women.
