“We are beckoned to see the world through a one-way mirror, as if we are threatened and innocent and the rest of humanity is threatening, or wretched, or expendable. Our memory is struggling to rescue the truth that human rights were not handed down as privileges from a parliament, or a boardroom, or an institution, but that peace is only possible with justice and with information that gives us the power to act justly.”

Subject: Books Available for Review for Human Rights Review
To: Melissa Labonte <labonte@fordham.edu>

Dear Colleagues,

As the Book Review Editor for Human Rights Review, I invite you to review a
book for the journal. The list of “Books Available for Review” includes
over one hundred titles and can be found on the Human Rights Review webpage
under FOR AUTHORS AND EDITORS at:

http://www.springer.com/law/journal/12142

If you are interested in doing a "Review Essay," you can select three (3)
books that touch on common themes. There are web links to the publishers of
the books for general information regarding the focus of each book on the
list.

Please CONTACT ME DIRECTLY at labarria@eiu.edu OR hrrbooks@eiu.edu with any
questions and/or to request a book from the current list for review.

Interested reviewers should provide:

(1) A mailing address
(2) An estimated deadline for completion of the review (at this point I
suggest four possible deadlines from which to choose: February 1, 2014;
April 1, 2014; June 1, 2014; or August 1, 2014).

Reviews are generally published in the journal 6-12 months after the review
is received.

Best regards,

Lilian A. Barria, Ph.D.
