For the Record
Each year, the
United Nations publishes
For the Record, a country-by-country overview of
human rights issues with links to relevant United Nations documents. The latest to appear is
2003 at
http://www.hri.ca/fortherecord2003/ . A few sections are still under construction but as these are the introduction, foreword, etc., this is not a huge problem. The other six volumes, which cover, in turn,
Thematic Mechanisms & Approaches;
Africa;
Asia;
Latin America & the Caribbean;
Central & Eastern Europe; and
Western Europe & Other (which bewidleringly includes both
Australia and the
United States) are all there. There are also Appendices.
Older issues of the annual going back to 1997 are available at the site.
