--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The promotion and protection of human rights is a pillar of the United Nations,
enshrined in the Charter, the international bill of rights, elaborated in
General Assembly resolutions and declarations, and buttressed by monitoring
mechanisms and regional human rights courts. After WWII the world demanded
respect for collective and individual rights and freedoms, including the right
to live in peace, i.e.freedom from fear and want, the right to food, water,
health, shelter, belief and expression. Human dignity was understood as an
inalienable entitlement of every member of the human family, rights that were
juridical. justiciable and enforceable.
It did not take long for these noble goals to be politicized. Many States
systematically weaponize human rights for geopolitics. A "human rights industry"
operates at all levels and instrumentalizes values with the complicity of
diplomats, politicians, non-governmental organizations, academics, journalists,
-independent experts-, rapporteurs, secretariat members and media conglomerates.
This book addresses the decisive role played by major governmental and private
agencies such as the National Endowment for Democracy, USAID, elite think tanks,
Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission, World Economic Forum and
others in shaping a "perception" of human rights that primarily serves
geopolitical interests. Major non-governmental organizations that once were
truly independent, including Amnesty and HRW, today belong to the leading
narrative managers.
The voting record in the General Assembly and Human Rights Council by China,
Russia, the United States, Canada, UK, EU, OIC, Group of 77, Non-aligned
movement, etc. documents who supports and who subverts human rights. Why do the
Council and NGOs practice double-standards and allow States to brazenly lie,
blackmail and bully weaker States? Under the pretext of providing humanitarian
assistance, lethal military interventions are conducted, e.g. in Libya,
emblematic example of how the noble idea of the "responsibility to protect" was
corrupted. Propagandistic use of the words "human rights", "democracy", "rule of
law", "freedom" - demean them and subvert rational discourse.
Drawing on more than four decades of working in the field of human rights as UN
staff member, rapporteur, consultant, professor and NGO president, Alfred de
Zayas examines how the tools of implementation of human rights serve to entrench
political narratives promoted by the "industry".

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
REVIEW
"A timely and necessary book. Alfred de Zayas is one of the world's deepest and
most authoritative thinkers."
DR. ALAN MACLEOD, University of Glasgow Media Group, editor, Mintpress
"The world needs a better narrative. Alfred de Zayas offers an all encompassing
perspective for a world order, justly built upon human dignity and genuine
compliance with the law of the precious International Bill of Human Rights. The
book is an invitation to soul-searching."
MARJOLIJN C. SNIPPE, international lawyer, board member World Federalist
Movement in the Netherlands
"Zayas is a noted peace and human rights activist. His new book on the human
rights industry reveals double-standards of the Human Rights Council,
Inter-American Court and European Court of Human Rights. As a high UN official
for decades, Zayas knows what he is talking about."
JOSÉ LUIS MAZÓN COSTA, Madrid-based human rights lawyer before the UN Human
Rights Committee, ECHR, Spanish Supreme Court and Spanish Constitutional Court
"Alfred de Zayas is an experienced human rights scholar, knowledgeable and
straight-forward. Worth reading in depth."
PROFESSOR MARC BOSSUYT, former President of the Belgian Constitutional Court and
member of the UN Sub-Commission on Promotion and Protection of Human Rights
"This book is an eloquent indictment of international crimes and the corruption
of vital international institutions. It is a plea for the reversal of these
negative and dangerous trends for the good of humanity. It exposes the disease
and what can be done to start the remedy and cure. Coming from an experienced UN
insider, this is an essential book for all who care about human rights and
peace."
RICK STERLING, journalist and board chair of the Mt. Diablo Peace & Justice
Center
"Alfred de Zayas provides a candid view of the 'human rights industry' from the
perspective of someone who has been inside the system for almost five decades.
Like the whistleblowers he cites in the book's dedication, Alfred is willing to
provide a glimpse into the good and bad of the UN's growing human rights
industry."
CURTIS DOEBBLER, Research Professor of Law at the University of Makeni (Sierra
Leone), representative of the NGO International-Lawyers.org to UN Headquarters
"This book is a long-overdue critique of the human rights system by someone who
truly values human rights and who has a unique and valuable perspective as a
human rights practitioner for 50 years. As Zayas so eloquently explains, the
human rights system has sadly become a business, motivated by the drive for the
approval of its rich and self-interested (Western) patrons. The result is a
system infected by unfairness and double standards--the very opposite of what we
would want from a system which purports to protect the most basic rights of
humanity. However, this is not a fatalistic or cynical critique like some.
Rather, it is a hopeful work which offers constructive criticism and concrete
suggestions for making the system one that works for everyone and upholds the
very values it was created to promote. I highly recommend this book for experts,
practitioners, and lay readers alike."
DANIEL KOVALIK, professor of International Human Rights at the University of
Pittsburgh School of Law, and author, No More War: How the West Violates
International Law by Using "Humanitarian" Intervention to Advance Economic and
Strategic Interests
"The Human Rights Industry is the most comprehensive and honest assessment and
critique to date of the performance of institutions the international community
has set up to monitor respect of those principles that underlie justice and the
rule of law at the global level. Whether domestically or in relations between
sovereign states, politics must conform to human dignity, and the authority of
the state must only be used to enforce the law, but not to subvert it just for
the sake of mere power. This is the rationale of all international instruments
and institutions established under the Charter of the United Nations and
particularly in response to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted
by the organization's General Assembly in 1948. ..." DR. HANS KOCHLER,
International Progress Organization, Vienna
"Alfred de Zayas has done it again, calling on human conscience unequivocally
and non-apologetically to rectify the dysfunctions of the UN system for the
protection and promotion of Human Rights. Zayas wants it reoriented toward a
just, equitable and sustainable development for all, not just the privileged.
The promise of food security and planetary health will remain a mirage unless
reforms are undertaken and the United Nations recommits to implementing the
UDHR. The common heritage of mankind is threatened by the falsehoods that
surround political discourse and lip-service to human rights. Sober reflections
in all humility can restore our human dignity as we follow the plan of action
proposed by Zayas. Only we can be the guardians of our Rights."
DR. MAWULI SABLAH, West Africa Regional Advisor for Health and Nutrition,
Catholic Relief Services, Burkina Faso
"This book reveals the inner-workings of the United Nations by that rare public
servant willing to shine a light on corruption and failure as well as courage
and success. It also gives us an honest and expert survey of nonprofit
organizations and media outlets that report on human rights.Most importantly, it
provides a detailed plan to reform a system currently perverted by the power of
certain governments rather than shaped by the interests of those most in need."
DAVID SWANSON, Executive Director, World Beyond War
"A timely, informative, insightful, and thought-provoking study, "The Human
Rights Industry" by Aldred de Zayas is a seminal work that is unreservedly
recommended for personal, professional, community, college, and university
library Contemporary Political Science collections and supplemental curriculum
studies lists. It should be noted for students, academia, political activists,
and governmental policy makers that "The Human Rights Industry" is also
available in a digital book format." CHRIS TRAVIS, Midwest Book Review
"Another outstanding book by this remarkable and prolific author"
DR. PETER MACALISTER-SMITH, Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and
International Law, 1982 -2016, Heidelberg
"There is a human right to truth. Zayas shows us that History and Law can be
instrumentalized and turned into fake history and fake law. This book by a
veteran human rights scholar documents the hijacking of the human rights system
by governments, corporations and lobbies. Zayas is not only a distinguished
professor of law, he is also a historian whose books have helped correct the
politicized historical record.This new book raises important ethical questions
that deserve answers. A "must read".
DR. FRANZ SEIDLER, Professor emeritus, Universität der Bundeswehr, Munich
"In a book just published in the United States (The Human Rights Industry,
Clarity Press), the Geneva expert Alfred de Zayas dissects, analyzes and
highlights the behaviors and, too often, the biases and biases that these
organizations show despite their impartiality and proclaimed independence. From
the International Criminal Court (budget: 150 million) entirely financed by
Western countries and NATO members, to information agencies funded by
intelligence services and defence ministers (such as the Bellingcat website very
popular with the major European media) and the myriad of NGOs and more or less
official bodies that gravitate around the United Nations, It paints a
contrasting picture of their activities, to say the least." GUY METTAN, AGEFI
(French, machine translation.)
"Professor de Zayas raises important issues about the politicization of the UN
Human Rights Office and the Human Rights Council. He formulates pragmatic
proposals for the reform of UN human rights institutions in the spirit of the UN
Charter. The book is supported by hundreds of credible sources and calls for
serious debate."
PROFESSOR TIAN LI, Director of the Center for Human Rights and Peaceful
Development & Associate Professor of School of Law, Shandong University, China
"Alfred de Zayas offers us an invaluable insider's account of how the global
system created after World War II to protect human rights is brazenly
manipulated by the United States Government and others for geopolitical ends. De
Zayas is a human rights leader of remarkable insight, experience, wisdom, and
integrity, whose account is both searing and hugely constructive. He makes
vividly clear why we must, and how we can, truly champion peace and human
rights."
JEFFREY D. SACHS, University Professor at Columbia University
"In this book an insider of the human rights system resolutely addresses some of
the most uncomfortable truths of the 'industry'. He uncovers dysfunctions that
have hindered the fulfillment of human rights obligations in many countries.
With evidence that speaks for itself, he puts on the table an unspoken reality,
showing that many actors are using Human Rights for geopolitical purposes and
for totalitarian imposition of their values. Zayas manages to shed a light of
hope and formulates sharp proposals aimed at restoring the institutions to their
true purpose. Every person involved with Human Rights should read this and
practice introspection."
LUIS ROBERTO ZAMORA BOLAÑOS, former Costa Rican Ambassador to Seoul, member of
the International Association of Democratic Lawyers
"At a time when corruption and newspeak seem to become the new normal, de Zayas
remains an untiring voice of reason and decency."
MAX KERN, retired senior officer, International Labour Office, Geneva, chief of
the freedom of workers section, in charge of verification of compliance with ILO
conventions

5.0 OUT OF 5 STARS HUMAN RIGHTS AS EXCUSE TO INTERVENE
Reviewed in the United States on 20 April 2024
Verified Purchase
This book is written by a highly distinguished scholar who has served in the
United Nations. He recognizes the flaws in the western model of human rights,
which fails to consider the ever-present threat of using it as a means to
intervene in sovereign nations that the west seeks to keep under their
imperialist thumb.
