| Description: | This text portrays the contribution of the countries of Central America and Mexico in the process of elaborating the Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. This regional analysis is based on two extensive compilations of the protocols and minutes of the sessions of different bodies of the United Nations as well as the contributions of other actors sent to these bodies. While the legal contributions of the delegates in these processes have been described, this text focuses on the historical and cultural aspects of their participation. By doing this, it reveals the specific historical and regional context of this crucial phase for the development of the international human rights system in which different actors involved have tried to expand or to limit the rights embodied in these key documents. |
