This compact and useful monograph illuminates the problems that all who think about or try to implement human rights policy must confront: inevitable inconsistency, difficulties of definition, the comparative efficacy of carrots and sticks, and the uncertainty of measuring results. The author is a moderate neoconservative. He tempers a generally negative assessment of the Carter record with some praise.
