Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. If human rights are considered the most essential quality of human existence, then this book represents a lifetime devoted to the fight for those rights Ai WeiweiIn three decades under the leadership of Kenneth Roth, Human Rights Watch conducted investigations in 100 countries to uncover abuses and pressured offending governments to stop them. Roth has grappled with the worst of humanity, taken on the most ruthless oppressors of our time, and persuaded leaders from around the globe to stand up to their repressive counterparts.The son of a Jew who fled Nazi Germany just before the war began, Roth grew up knowing full well how inhumane governments could be. He has traveled the world to meet cruelty and injustice on its home turf: he arrived in Rwanda shortly after the genocide; scrutinized the impact of Saddams invasion of Kuwait; investigated and condemned Israels mistreatment of Palestinians. He directed efforts to curtail the Chinese governments persecution of Uyghur Muslims, to bring Myanmars officials to justice after the ethnic cleansing of Rohingya Muslims, to halt Russian war crimes in Ukraine, even to rein in the U.S. government. Roths many innovations and strategies included the deployment of a concept as old as mankind the powerful tool of shaming and here he illustrates its surprising effectiveness against evildoers.This is a story of wins, losses, and ongoing battles in the ceaseless fight for a more decent world.

Hardback. Zustand: Good. ONE OF THE ECONOMIST'S BEST BOOKS OF 2025 * From the long-time head of Human Rights Watch, the fascinating and inspiring story of taking on the biggest villains and toughest autocrats around the world In three decades under the leadership of Kenneth Roth, Human Rights Watch grew to a staff of more than five hundred, conducting investigations in one hundred countries to uncover abuses--and pressuring offending governments to stop them. Roth has grappled with the worst of humanity, taken on the most brutal officials of our time, and persuaded leaders from around the globe to stand up to their repressive counterparts. The son of a Jew who fled Nazi Germany just before the war began, Roth grew up knowing full well how inhumane governments could be. He has traveled the world to meet cruelty and injustice on its home turf: he arrived in Rwanda shortly after the genocide; scrutinized the impact of Saddam's invasion of Kuwait; investigated and condemned Israel's mistreatment of Palestinians.
