China Makes Achievements in Human Rights Studies
President of the China Society for Human Rights Studies (CSHRS) Zhou Jue said here Thursday that China has made outstanding achievements in human rights studies and boasts a contingent of experts on human rights.
Sichuan People's Publishing House donated 21,800 volumes of 10 books on human rights to nationwide research and education bodies. Together with the CSHRS, the publishing house organized a seminar Thursday afternoon.
The academic achievements made by the Chinese experts include introduction to basic theories of human rights, China's practice of human rights, and translation of foreign human rights writings, Zhou said at the seminar.
As the nation is faced with new domestic and international situations, the Chinese human rights experts must stick to the basic principle of Marxism when studying human rights in modern times, Zhou said.
He urged the researchers to make further contributions to the academic field.
As China's first publisher for human rights books, Sichuan People's Publishing House has produced about 20 varieties of related books since 1990, including the well-known World Documents of Human Rights and the Encyclopedia of Human Rights.
