Human rights in the South Pacific: Challenges and Changes

This is a unique text on human rights in a region where, while human rights are a daily issue, there is a dearth of academic critical analysis which encompasses a number of Pacific island countries. Drawing on an impressive range of resources this book locates national and regional issues and responses squarely within international discourse about the scope and implementation of rights. This book makes a major contribution to critical human rights discourse and through specific case-studies illustrates the very real practical problems encountered in some of the least developed countries of the world and suggests possible alternative approaches.
