Western Responses to Human Rights Abuses in Cambodia, 1975-80

Více o knize

The book explores Western reactions to human rights violations in Cambodia during the tumultuous period from 1975 to 1980, characterized by the Khmer Rouge's brutal regime, a Vietnamese invasion, civil conflict, and famine. It contends that the Vietnamese invasion in December 1978 compelled Western nations to navigate a complex dilemma between advocating for the individual human rights of Cambodians and pursuing their own geopolitical interests.
