In this issue the Bulletin of Concerned Asian Scholars presents the first three of a symposium of six articles on the contemporary human rights debate; there will be three more in a later issue. Three of the authors are from Asia, three from the United States. The six papers are selections from a forthcoming volume to include contributions from twelve Asian and U.S. scholars who have been involved in a collaborative research project attempting to identify common ground in the international human rights debate. Organized at the Center for Rights Development (CORD) at the University of Denver, work from the project has been presented in special panels at the Thirty-Fourth Congress of Asian and North African Studies in August 1993 in Hong Kong, and at the annual meeting of the Association for Asian Studies in April 1995 in Washington, D.C.
