"Understanding U.S. Human Rights Policy" provides--beginning with
the Nixon administration--a historical overview of the
conflict/cooperation/paradoxes involved in the making and
implementing of human rights policy. The book provides a thorough,
administration by administration investigation of the interplay
between human rights issues and foreign policy decision making. In
doing so, the author demonstrates that the history of United States
human rights policy is a series of different paradoxes that change
depending on the presidential administration. Apodaca shows that
far from immobilizing the progression of a genuine and functioning
human rights policy, these paradoxes have actually helped to
improve the human rights protections over the years. Readers will
find in a single volume a historically informed, argument driven
account of the erratic evolution of U.S. human rights policy over
the past 35 years; a period during which concern for human rights
became a major factor in foreign policy decision making.
"Understanding U.S. Human Rights Policy" provides a comprehensive
overview and analysis of the complex and, often vexing problem of
understanding the formation of U.S. Human Rights policy that could
be used as a supplement in courses on human rights, foreign policy
analysis and decision making, and the history of U.S. foreign
policy.
