The People’S Republic Of China’S Stance On Human Rights In Selected Crises, Brian T. Kopczynski
The People’S Republic Of China’S Stance On Human Rights In Selected Crises, Brian T. Kopczynski
CMC Senior Theses
This paper examines China’s policy towards human rights internationally with the intent of discerning real support for human rights. It compares China’s responses to two cases of mass human rights violations (the Darfur and Israel-Palestine conflicts) in which it has a serious interest (energy in particular). It finds that China treats human rights self-interestedly, but also has some support for them when its interests are not at stake.
