PALGRAVE MACMILLAN STUDIES ON
HUMAN RIGHTS IN ASIA
SERIES EDITOR: MIKYOUNG KIM
Series Editor
Mikyoung Kim, Hiroshima, Japan
This Palgrave Macmillan book series addresses the rising interest in human
rights topics in Asia. It focuses on the largely underexplored territory
of Asian human rights topics highlighting its empirical manifestations,
historical trajectory and theoretical implications. It also goes beyond
the problematic dichotomy between “East” and “West” by engaging
in rigorous case-specific as well as cross-regional comparisons within
South-South context. China’s rise in world politics and its emergence
as a massive donor, for example, has significant yet troubling implica-
tions. The member countries of ASEAN and Northeast Asia, on the
other hand, would have different preoccupations and priorities calling for
context-sensitive diagnosis and prognosis to promote human right causes.
The series is multidisciplinary in nature and open to submissions
focusing on international organization, ethics, criminology, develop-
ment, freedom of expression, labour rights, environment, human/sex
trafficking, democratization, governance studies, disability, reproductive
rights, LGBT, post-/colonial as well as post-/authoritarian critiques and
social movement, among others.
The series publishes full-length monographs, and edited volumes.

PREFACE vii
“I was asked by Dr. Ying Hooi Khoo to write an endorsement on the book
that she, Dr. Antero B. da Silva and Dr. Therese Nguyen Thi Phuong Tam
are going to publish, with the title ‘Rethinking Human Rights and Peace
in Post-Independence Timor-Leste through Local Perspectives.’ In fact,
this is a good opportunity to rethink Democracy, Human Rights, Peace
and Justice in Timor-Leste. The topics presented are all very important
and relevant. I hope the government and civil society groups are able to
read, reflect and take as a standard to improve the situation of Human
Rights and Justice in Timor-Leste. Only in this way can integral, harmo-
nious and sustainable development benefit the people of Timor-Leste. I
address my congratulations to all authors!”
