Human Rights: Continuing the Discussion

More Book Details

Description of the Book:

Since the scan of the back of the book is virtually unreadable, I’ll type it up here: “The author of this book is a prominent legal expert and public figure. He is a professor of law, an Honored Scholar of the RSFSR, Vice-President of the Association of Soviet Jurists, and an associate member of the International Academy of Comparative Law (The Hague). Samuil Zivs has appeared on television in the United States (NBC) and Great Britain (BBC) as a participant in debates and discussions dealing with the question of human rights; he has given interviews which were widely covered by the media in France, Belgium, Sweden, the Federal Republic of Germany, and other countries. He has given lectures in universities and public auditoriums in many countries around the world.

In his book Samuil Zivs continues, as it were, the discussion of those pressing questions of human rights which interest the general public.

He combines analysis of several theoretical approaches with an account of his personal experience and polemics with his opponents in debates and discussions.”
