Article Abstract:

This article discusses the methods employed by human rights activists in attempting to shame China into accord with 'universal' standards. The author suggests that these tactics may not only be ineffective but counterproductive because they arouse indignation by offending national pride, and cause a cultural relativist defence, with no signs of policy change.
