About the author

Barbara J. Keys is Associate Professor of U.S. and International History at the University of Melbourne.

Summary

Human rights emerged as a reaction to the Vietnam trauma, Barbara Keys shows. Instead of looking inward for renewal, Americans looked outward for ways to restore their moral leadership. From world’s judge to world’s policeman was a small step, and intervention in the name of human rights because a cause both the left and right could embrace.
