Human rights and the courts and tribunals that protect them are
increasingly part of our moral, legal, and political circumstances.
The growing salience of human rights has recently brought the
question of their philosophical foundation to the foreground.
Theorists of human rights often assume that their ideal can be
traced to the philosophy of Immanuel Kant and his view of humans as
ends in themselves. Yet, few have attempted to explore exactly how
human rights should be understood in a Kantian framework. The
scholars in this book have gathered to fill this gap. At the center
of Kant's theory of rights is a view of freedom as independence
from domination. The chapters explore the significance of this
theory for the nature of human rights, their justification, and the
legitimacy of international human rights courts.
