Universal Declaration of Human Rights : The Travaux Preparatoires PDF
Edited by William A. Schabas
Description
A collection of United Nations documents associated with the drafting of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, these volumes facilitate research into the scope of, meaning of and intent behind the instrument's provisions.
It permits an examination of the various drafts of what became the thirty articles of the Declaration, including one of the earliest documents - a compilation of human rights provisions from national constitutions, organised thematically.
The documents are organised chronologically and thorough thematic indexing facilitates research into the origins of specific rights and norms.
It is also annotated in order to provide information relating to names, places, events and concepts that might have been familiar in the late 1940s but are today more obscure.
