Paperback. Zustand: Good. 200 pages. Cover slightly worn.Despite the progress made in international standards and norms, cultural righ ts remain among the least understood of all human rights in that we have a clear sense of neither their contours and content nor the relationship between cultur e and rightsThat link is surely among the most sensitive issues confron ting the international human rights community as it enters the new millennium. I n these circumstances, I am especially pleased that this volume addresses such a n important and complex issue. Moreover, the contributors bring distinctive Sout h Pacific perspectives to their discussion of culture, rights and cultural right s. This contribution to the global campaign to make all human rights a reality t o all human beings amply demonstrates that the South Pacific has a rich contribu tion to make.
