During the 1970s human rights took the front stage in international
relations; fuelling political debates, social activism and a
reconceptualising of both East-West and North-South relations.
Nowhere was the debate on human rights more intense than in Western
Europe, where human rights discourses intertwined the Cold War and
the European Convention on Human Rights, the legacies of European
empires, and the construction of national welfare systems. Over
time, the European Community (EC) began incorporating human rights
into its international activity, with the ambitious political will
to prove that the Community was a global “civilian power.” This
book brings together the growing scholarship on human rights during
the 1970s, the history of European integration and the study of
Western European supranational cooperation. Examining the role of
human rights in EC activities in Latin America, Africa, the
Mediterranean, Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union, The Human
Rights Breakthrough of the 1970s seeks to verify whether a
specifically European approach to human rights existed, and asks
whether there was a distinctive ‘European voice’ in the human
rights surge of the 1970s.
