Human Rights in China
Human Rights are not guaranteed in China. While China signed the International
Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and the International
Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights
(ICESCR) in 1998 and 1997 respectively, to date it is
committing
blatant violations of the rights they
contain. These violations include extensive use of arbitrary detention,
imprisonment of political and religious dissidents, torture and ill-treatment of
detainees, deprivation of the rights to freedom of expression, association and
assembly, widespread failure to enforce laws protecting the rights of workers
and women, suppression of religious freedom and the use of physical and
psychological coercion in the implementation of the population control policy.
