Prior to World War II, the protection of individuals fell generally
under the jurisdiction of national governments, but the rise of
fascism and the gross wartime violations of human rights
established human rights as an area of transnational and global
concern. A Most Uncertain Crusade traces the emergence of human
rights as an international political issue-one especially important
to American policymakers after World War II. Focusing on officials
in the State Department, at the United Nations, and within
nongovernmental organizations, Rowland Brucken explains how
American human rights policy developed after the war - from
Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt's Wilsonian ideals to Eisenhower's
eloquent celebrations of freedom and democracy.
