It is divided into three parts that reflect the major ethical challenges discussed at the workshops: the ethical challenges associated with interaction between relatively rich and powerful northern-based human rights INGOs and recipients of their aid in the South; whether and how to collaborate with governments that place severe restrictions on the activities of human rights INGOs; and the tension between expanding the organization's mandate to address more fundamental social and economic problems and restricting it for the sake of focusing on more immediate and clearly identifiable violations of civil and political rights. Each section contains contributions by both theorists and practitioners of human rights. 606 $aNon-governmental organizations 606 $aHuman rights 606 $aPolitical ethics 615 0$aNon-governmental organizations. 615 0$aHuman rights. 615 0$aPolitical ethics. 676 $a323.06/01 702 $aBell$b Daniel$g(Daniel A.),$f1964- 702 $aCoicaud$b Jean-Marc 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778113003321 996 $aEthics in action$91905985 997 $aUNINA
