Amnesty International : Report 2010 highlights global justice gap

The Amnesty International Report 2010 (see http://thereport.amnesty.org/) documents the state of human rights across 159 countries in 2009. It details a year in which although important gains were made accountability and effective justice seemed a remote ideal for many.

In 2009, peoples lives around the world continued to be torn apart by repression, violence, discrimination and political power plays, and a global justice gap prevailed.
