Are human rights universal? What do human rights mean in the context of most Middle Eastern and Third World states? This book moves beyond the sensational headlines to explore how Middle Eastern men and women feel about the societies in which they live. Kevin Dwyer makes use of extensive research and interview material from Egypt, Tunisia, and Moroco to present first-hand testimony combined with vivid and illuminating analysis.
