Human Rights Watch World Report 2011
Human Rights Watch, under director Kenneth Roth, leads the struggle to focus the world's eye on human rights issues at home and abroad. Its annual World Report, written in straightforward, non-technical language, conducts a systematic investigation of human rights abuses in every country from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, with a particular focus on the roles played in each country by key domestic and international figures. Then—in incisive essays written by staff, scholars, and activists—the report describes the way forward to a more humane future.
Highly anticipated and widely publicized by the US and international press every year, World Report—collecting reports on human rights issues from 2010—is an invaluable resource for journalists, diplomats, and citizens.
