Newsweek has an excellent cover essay by Joshua Kurlantzick on the collapse of the advocacy of human rights.
‘Today the lack of interest in human rights has been virtually institutionalised in Washington and other capitals,” he reveals. “Advocating for global freedom will get you nowhere.”
This is an intelligent piece that warns of a cataclysmic event such as the fall of the Berlin Wall or the 9/11 attacks to ’shake Western populations out of their torpor.’
