Advancing human rights
Content:
After World War II dozens of non-governmental organizations (NGO's) emerged on the global scene, committed to improving the lives of the world's most vulnerable people. Some focused on protecting human rights; some were dedicated to development, aimed at satisfying basic economic needs. Both approaches had distinctive methods, missions, and emphases. In the 1980's and 90's, however, the dividing line began to blur. In the first book to track the growing intersection and even overlap of human rights and development NGO's, Paul Nelson and Ellen Dorsey introduce a concept they call new rights advocacy
