520 Between the Second World War and the early 1970s,
political leaders, activists, citizens, protestors. and
freedom fighters triggered a human rights revolution in
world affairs. Stimulated particularly by the horrors of
the crimes against humanity in the 1940s, the human rights
revolution grew rapidly to subsume claims from minorities,
women, the politically oppressed, and marginal communities
across the globe. The human rights revolution began with a
disarmingly simple idea: that every individual, whatever
his or her nationality, political beliefs, or ethnic and
religious heritage, possesses an inviolable right to be
treated with dignity. From this basic claim grew many more,
and ever since, the cascading effect of these initial
rights claims has dramatically shaped world history down
to our own times. The contributors to this volume look at
the wave of human rights legislation emerging out of World
War II, including the UN Declaration of Human Rights, the
Nuremberg trial, and the Geneva Conventions, and the
expansion of human rights activity in the 1970s and beyond,
including the anti-torture campaigns of Amnesty
International, human rights politics in Indonesia and East
Timor, the emergence of a human rights agenda among
international scientists, and the global campaign female
genital mutilation. The book concludes with a look at the
UN Declaration at its 60th anniversary. Bringing together
renowned senior scholars with a new generation of
international historians, these essays set an ambitious
agenda for the history of human rights. -- Publisher
