In accordance with the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and its optional protocol, adopted by the UN General Assembly, the Human Rights Committee was established in 1976. Its role is to consider applications from individuals who believe that their human rights, as established under the Covenant, have been violated and who have exhausted all relevant national domestic remedies, providing certain conditions of admissibility are met. This report contains selected decisions made by the Committee during its 75th to 84th sessions (July 2002 - July 2005).

A collection of United Nations documents associated with the drafting of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, these volumes facilitate research into the scope of, meaning of and intent behind the instrument's provisions. It permits an examination of the various drafts of what became the thirty articles of the Declaration, including one of the earliest documents – a compilation of human rights provisions from national constitutions, organised thematically. The documents are organised chronologically and thorough thematic indexing facilitates research into the origins of specific rights and norms. It is also annotated in order to provide information relating to names, places, events and concepts that might have been familiar in the late 1940s but are today more obscure.
