Nearly all countries have ratified nearly all the major human rights treaties, and all governments profess support for human rights, yet most countries flagrantly violate the human rights of their citizens. This book argues that the reason why is that there is a contradiction between the goal of enforcing human rights-which requires simple rules-and the realities of governance, which require flexibility and discretion.
