Washington DC: National Academy Press 1993. Presumed First Edition/First Printing. Trade paperback. Very good. ix 1 65 1 pages. Footnotes. Publisher's press release laid in. Cover has slight wear and soiling. The situation for human rights in Syria is considered exceptionally poor among international observers. A state of emergency was in effect from 1963 until April 2011 giving security forces sweeping powers of arrest and detention. From 1973-2012 Syria was a single-party state. The authorities have been accused of harassing and imprisoning human rights activists and other critics of the government. Freedom of expression association and assembly are strictly controlled. Women and ethnic minorities face discrimination. According to Human Rights Watch President Bashar al-Assad failed to improve Syria's human rights record in the first 10 years of his rule and Syria's human rights situation remained among the worst in the world. According to Amnesty International the government may be guilty of crimes against humanity based on "witness accounts of deaths in custodyrape= and arbitrary detention" during the crackdown against the 2011 uprising and during the Syrian Civil War. The Committee on Human Rights CHR created in 1976 is a standing membership committee of the United States National Academy of Sciences NAS National Academy of Engineering NAE and National Academy of Medicine NAM institutions composed of many of the world's most distinguished scientists engineers physicians and researchers. The CHR serves as a bridge between the human rights and scientific communities in recognition of the importance of rights protection both for scientific inquiry and the realization of human dignity worldwide. The CHR brings the influence of the National Academies' members to bear on situations of serious human rights concern. It advocates in support of scientists engineers and health professionals subjected to serious human rights abuses worldwide with a focus on individuals targeted for their professional activities and/or for having exercised the universally protected right to freedom of expression which provides a crucial foundation for scientific research and progress. It provides assistance to professional colleagues under threat by linking them to the wider international scientific community and to organizations that provide pro bono legal support and other services. Finally the CHR raises awareness concerning the links between science technology health and human rights including through briefings symposia and use of interactive media. The CHR supported by a staff of human rights professionals is composed of 14 members drawn from the membership of the three Academies and appointed by the Academies' Presidents. The three foreign secretaries of the NAS NAE and NAM are among these members and serve on the committee in an ex officio capacity. More than 1600 members of the National Academies are "CHR Correspondents" who receive regular information on the CHR's activities and frequently make appeals in human rights cases identified by the CHR. Since 1993 the CHR has served as Secretariat of the International Human Rights Network of Academies and Scholarly Societies which brings together national academies and scholarly societies from all regions of the world for the purpose of addressing shared science and human rights concerns.
