| Summary |
"Why and how can records serve as evidence of human rights violations, in particular crimes against humanity, and help the fight against impunity? Archives and Human Rights shows the close relationship between archives and human rights and discusses the emergence, at the international level, of the principles of the right to truth, justice and reparation. This book is both a tool and an inspiration to use archives in defence of human rights"-- Provided by publisher. |
