Description

Human rights are a central concern of U.S. foreign policy. Each year, in response to congressional mandates, the Department of State (State) issues its Country Reports on Human Rights Practices, an important source of information on human rights worldwide. The country reports äóî collectively known as the Human Rights Report (HRR) äóî cover internationally recognized civil, political, and worker rights as set forth in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Stateäó»s 2010 HRR included country reports covering the status of human rights in more than 190 countries. The 2010 report noted that State attempted to make the country reports as comprehensive, objective, and uniform as possible in both scope and quality of coverage. Regarding Stateäó»s procedures for preparing the country reports, particularly the worker rights section, this report examined (1) Stateäó»s process for making the country reports as comprehensive, objective, and uniform as possible; and (2) the extent to which State followed its process in preparing the worker rights section of the 2010 country reports. Figure. This is a print on demand report.
