Landmines: A Deadly Legacy

Published in October 1993, by the Arms Project of Human Rights
Watch and Physicians for Human Rights, "A Deadly Legacy"
represented the first comprehensive report on the global landmines
crisis. It includes case studies of seven severely mine-affected
countries, as well as chapters on development and use, production
and trade, medical and social consequences, mine clearance, an
analysis of international law governing antipersonnel mines and a
description of initiatives to control the weapon. The report concludes
with a call for a ban on antipersonnel mines and has appendices
including information about the newly-launched International
Campaign to Ban Landmines, congressional testimonies and draft
legislation. It also includes photographs and drawings.
