This chapter deals with the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination. It is divided into three parts, each part consisting of several articles. Article 1 defines the term &t;racial discrimination&t; which shall mean any distinction, exclusion, restriction or preference based on race, colour, descent, or national or ethnic origin which has the purpose or effect of nullifying or impairing the recognition, enjoyment or exercise, on an equal footing, of human rights and fundamental freedoms in the political, economic, social, cultural or any other field of public life. Article 25 says that this Convention, of which the Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish texts are equally authentic, shall be deposited in the archives of the United Nations.
