The book was prepared on the basis of the short reviews of the human rights situation in Belarus for each month of 2008. It begins with the general analysis of the civil and political situation in the country for the reporting time. The book describes important events and the reaction of the international community to them. Then there are presented some concrete facts of human rights violations by which one can trace back a certain history of struggle of representatives of the Belarusian democratic community for human rights and fundamental freedoms. Among the main violations there are politically motivated criminal and administrative persecution, trampling upon the freedom of expression, prohibition of peaceful assemblies and denial of the right to association.
