El hombre que quiso entrar en Auschwitz
El hombre que quiso entrar en Auschwitz nos ofrece el impactante testimonio real de Denis Avey, soldado británico que durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial se introdujo voluntariamente en Buna-Monowitz, el campo de concentración conocido como Auschwitz III, para ser testigo de los horrores que allí se cometían. En el verano de 1944, Denis Avey había sido capturado por los nazis y compartía trabajos forzados con los prisioneros judíos del campo de concentración de Auschwitz. Allí trabó amistad con varios de los presos, entre ellos Hans, un judío holandés que sobrevivió al exterminio gracias a la ayuda de Denis cuando este, conocedor de su terrible situación, ideó un intercambio par...
Human Rights Annual Report 2005
The Committee's report examines the eighth annual report by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office ('Human Rights Annual Report 2005', Cm. 6606, ISBN 0101660626) published in July 2005. Issues discussed include: the international legal framework and the work of international institutions; the war against terrorism and treatment of detainees in Guantanamo Bay, extraordinary rendition and the use of information derived from torture, the situation in Iraq and the trial of Saddam Hussein; the arms trade and military assistance, and corporate social responsibility; and states of concern. The Committee welcomes the report as making a substantial contribution to the transparency and visibility of the Government's work on human rights matters. However, concerns are raised over the fact that the Minister responsible for human rights issues is also the Minister of State for Trade, roles which are often contradictory. The decision to subsume human rights work into the more general category of sustainable development is also criticised, since it would suggest that human rights issues are not being given sufficient strategic priority within UK foreign policy.

The Man Who Broke Into Auschwitz
The Man Who Broke into Auschwitz is the extraordinary true story of a British soldier who marched willingly into the concentration camp, Buna-Monowitz, known as Auschwitz III. In the summer of 1944, Denis Avey was being held in a British POW labour camp, E715, near Auschwitz III. He had heard of the brutality meted out to the prisoners there and he was determined to witness what he could. He hatched a plan to swap places with a Jewish inmate and smuggled himself into his sector of the camp. He spent the night there on two occasions and experienced at first-hand the cruelty of a place where slave workers, had been sentenced to death through labor. Astonishingly, he survived to witness the aftermath of the Death March where thousands of prisoners were murdered by the Nazis as the Soviet Army advanced. After his own long trek right across central Europe he was repatriated to Britain. For decades he couldn't bring himself to revisit the past that haunted his dreams, but now Denis Avey feels able to tell the full story -- a tale as gripping as it is moving -- which offers us a unique insight into the mind of an ordinary man whose moral and physical courage are almost beyond belief.
