'The book presents interesting new perspectives on the human rights
questions, first and foremost by bringing the discussion down to
the participants in Asian societies and focusing on how these
so-called coherent values are developed and defined locally.' -
Journal of Peace Research
'All essays in the volume are of good quality ... this volume of
essays makes a significant contribution to the urgent and
continuing effort to articulate and defend the universal principles
of human rights.' - Asian Journal of Political Science
' ... the observation by someof these authors that an examination
of Asian values leads us to understand ourselves better should now
be taken very seriously ... this book offers a timely reminder that
pride goes before a fall. It makes essential reading.' - Australian
Journal of International Affairs Vol. 57:1
