| Synopsis: |
Does the increasing prominence of Asia also mark a new era for human rights in the region? This timely book uncovers the political drivers behind both recent regional and country-based changes to the recognition, promotion and protection of rights.Human Rights in Asia focuses on the relationships between political regimes, institutions and cultures, and external actors, such as international organisations, NGOs and business. The contributing authors provide important discussions on Burma, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and the Philippines. Thematic chapters then go on to frame these individually focused contributions, by examining the international pressure to `normalise' rights regimes, and the relationship between Islam and rights in the region.Providing a unique combination of country-specific and thematic analysis, this book will be a fascinating and beneficial read for postgraduate and undergraduate students in human rights and international relations, as well as for scholars in politics, human rights, international relations and government and NGO analysts. |
