    • Laura Hebert in a private communication pointed out that I previously described my views as weak relativist or strong (but not radical) universalist, but that in an earlier version of this essay I used the label weak universalist. The careful reader will note that here I have avoided such formulations in favor of a notion of relative universality that is open to differing emphases. This reflects my growing appreciation of the advantages of approaching the continuum between relativism and universalism less as an ideal type account of all possible positions and more in terms of the spectrum of views that happen to be prevalent among actively engaged participants in the debate at a particular time and place. The actual spectrum of views actively engaged at any given time and place is likely to cover only a portion of the ideal type spectrum. My arguments have always been formulated primarily, although implicitly, with respect to the former. Over the past decade, much of the relativist end
    • Laura Hebert in a private communication pointed out that I previously described my views as weak relativist or strong (but not radical) universalist, but that in an earlier version of this essay I used the label weak universalist. The careful reader will note that here I have avoided such formulations in favor of a notion of relative universality that is open to differing emphases.

The actual spectrum of views actively engaged at any given time and place is likely to cover only a portion of the ideal type spectrum. My arguments have always been formulated primarily, although implicitly, with respect to the former. Over the past decade, much of the relativist end of the Cold War era spectrum has disappeared from mainstream discussions. Therefore, views such as my own that once appeared near the edge of the universalist end of the spectrum now appear more moderately universalist. I must also admit, though, that given this new political context I have intentionally given greater emphasis to the space available for diverse implementations of universal human rights norms. See Donnelly, Human Rights and Asian Values, supra note 1; Section 13, 14 below.

The claim, though, that benevolent governments that denied civil and political rights could deliver development more rapidly and spread its benefits more universally, unfortunately found almost no support in the experience of developmental dictatorships of the left and the right alike during the Cold War. Quite the contrary, pursuing economic and social rights without civil and political rights in practice usually led to poor performance in realizing both, particularly over the medium and long run.

    • I am implicitly speaking from the perspective of an engaged participant in international society. A different and more complex "subject position" may be important "on the ground" where ordinary people have more local and particularistic understandings of their values. I suspect that much of the "talking past each other" in debates on cultural relativism and human rights arises from taking arguments that may be well formulated for a particular setting, be it local or international, and applying them directly in another discursive setting, without the adjustments required to give those arguments resonance and persuasive force in that context. For example, in much of rural China today, direct appeals to internationally recognized human rights are unlikely to be politically efficacious, and often will be positively counter-productive, either for mobilizing peasants or persuading local authorities. Those working directly to improve the day to day life of Chinese peasants needs to give central place to this fact. But I would suggest that it says more about the Chinese state and the enforced isolation and systematic repression of Chinese peasants than about "Asian values."
