Abstract

A WorldPublicOpinion.org study of 25 nations from around the world has found a remarkable degree of consensus in support of the principles enunciated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which will celebrate its 60th anniversary on December 10. But there are certain limits--when presented difficult conditions, such as the potential for political instability, publics in a few nations back away from unequivocal support for some rights, though most publics do not.
