Dying for rights : putting North Korea's human rights abuses on the record / Sandra Fahy. by Fahy, Sandra, author. New York : Columbia University Press, [2019] Subjects Human rights -- Korea (North)   Human rights -- Korea (North) -- International cooperation. ISBN:  9780231176347 hardcover alkaline paper 0231176341 hardcover alkaline paper Series:  Contemporary Asia in the world. Description:  xii, 374 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  North Korea's human rights violations are unparalleled in the contemporary world. In Dying for Rights, Sandra Fahy provides the definitive account of the abuses committed by the North Korean state, domestically and internationally, from its founding to the present. Dying for Rights scrutinizes North Korea's treatment of its own people as well as foreign nationals, how violations committed by the state spread into the international realm, and how North Korea uses its state media and presence at the United Nations. Fahy meticulously documents the extent of arbitrary detention, torture, executions, and the network of prison camps throughout the country. The book details systematic and widespread violations of freedom of speech and of movement, freedom from discrimination, and the rights to food and to life. Fahy weaves together public and private testimonies from North Koreans resettled abroad, as well as NGO reports, the stories and facts brought to light by the United Nations Commission of Inquiry into North Korea, and North Korea's own state media, to share powerful personal narratives of human rights abuses. A compassionate yet objective investigation into the factors that sustain and perpetuate the flouting of basic rights, Dying for Rights reveals the profound culpability of the North Korean state in the systematic denial of human dignity.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 323.04409 Fa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 323.04409 Fa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 323.04409 Fa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 323.04409 Fa Checked In Add Copy to MyList
