Balochistan: At a Crossroads


 

Willem Marx, a journalist from the UK who focusses on human rights, religious conflict and injustice has recently published a book:  Balochistan: At a Crossroads.

This book details Marx’s travels in the ‘forgotten’ region in Pakistan and is accompanied by some impressive photography by French photojournalist Marc Wattrelot.

Soon after its publication, Marx was denied entry to Pakistan, undoubtedly another attempt by the Pakistani Military to prevent journalists from covering the region of Balochistan.

Copies of the book can be purchased at the upcoming UNPO conference ‘Human Rights, Regional Security and Perspectives for Balochistan and Pakistan’ on 10 March in Geneva.

Alternatively, copies can be purchased online: http://willemmarx.com/book/
