Description
The most sought-after report of human rights news, Human Rights Watch's annual World Report 2012 is an invaluable resource for journalists, diplomats and citizens alike. The 22nd annual report summarises human rights conditions in more than 90 countries and territories, focusing particularly on the roles - both positive and negative - played in each country by key domestic and international figures.
Reviews
The reports of the New York-based Human Rights Watch have become extremely important. . . . Cogent and eminently practical, these reports have gone far beyond an account of human rights abuses. . . . Ahmed Rashid in The New York Review of Books
An attempt to bring rationality where emotion tends to dominate. Simon Jenkins, former editor of the Times (London)
