Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Syria, Tunisia

This book on human rights practices chronicles dramatic changes and the stories of the people defending human rights in the countries of Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Syria and Tunisia; with a focus on providing lawmaker's decisions on foreign military and economic aid. Respect for human rights is not a western construct or a uniquely American ideal; it is the foundation for peace and stability everywhere. Universal human rights include the right of citizens to assemble peacefully and to seek to reform or change their governments, a central theme around the world.
