Publisher's Synopsis

The African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights (ACHPR) was the first non-Western declaration of human rights. This 2 volume set, for the first time, presents a comprehensive account of the development of the ACHPR, key to a proper understanding of its fundamental nature. Volume 1 outlines the dominant African political and cultural ideas upon which the OAU (now African Union) was founded. Volume 2 describes the process through which the ACHPR came into being.
