Arab Voices: The human rights debate in the Middle East: Routledge Library Editions: Society of the Middle East

Autor Kevin Dwyer
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 sep 2017
This book, first published in 1991, moves beyond sensational headlines to explore how Middle Eastern men and women speak and feel about the societies in which they live. Kevin Dwyer makes use of extensive research and interview material from Egypt, Tunisia and Morocco and combines first-hand testimony with vivid and illuminating analysis. The voices are those of lawyers, political militants, religious thinkers, journalists and human rights activists who focus their discussion on the question of human rights and critical issues in social and cultural life.
