description: This title examines the fundamental human rights of freedom of expression, assembly and freedom of association as set out in the international and regional human rights instruments. The right to demonstrate and protest forms part of the rights of assembly and association and is part of the democratic landscape of countries. An expert group sets out best practice and guidelines to ensure that these rights are protected while at the same time achieving a balance to ensure that other fundamental rights are not infringed. This book is particularly pertinent in the light of ongoing 'anti-globalization' protests.
