World of Science and the Rule of Law

On August 1, 1975, thirty-five nations solemnly signed a pledge--the Helsinki Accords--to maintain one code of human rights law. This book surveys the performance of these countries in upholding the rights important to scientists--the rights to education, work, communication, expression, travel, assembly, association, reputation and intellectual achievement. It describes where and when the rights were observed or violated and what scientists could do to promote a fuller observance in the future.Ziman, John M. is the author of 'World of Science and the Rule of Law', published 1986 under ISBN 9780198255161 and ISBN 0198255160.
