  • Description: "Respect for the human rights and fundamental freedoms reflected in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, is, as President [George W.] Bush has said, 'the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world.' Today, on every continent, men and women are working, often against great odds and at great risk, to secure the basic rights to live in dignity, to follow their conscience and speak their minds without fear, to choose those who would govern them and hold their leaders accountable, and to obtain equal justice under the law...These congressionally mandated reports describe the performance in 2007 of other governments across the globe in putting into practice their international commitments on human rights. The reports will inform U.S. government policymaking and also may serve as a reference for other governments, intergovernmental institutions, non-governmental organizations, individuals, and the media." (Country Reports on Human Rights Practices) The introduction to the State Department's Country Reports on Human Rights Practices for 2007 is provided.
