DESCRIPTION
Human rights as a focus of concern have come alive politically and intellectually in the last few years. There has always existed the danger that human rights would become the perserve of sentimental legalists and dogged propogandists, that is of those who thought the world automatically become a better place every time platitudes were inscribed in a legal form and of Cold Warriors who used some of these platitudes to increase international tension and military spending through their strident denunciations of "the enemy" state and its ideology.
