Since 9/11 and the onset of the "war on terror," the principal
challenge confronting liberal democracies has been to balance
freedom with security and individual with collective rights. This
book sheds new light on the evolution of human rights norms in
liberal democracies by charting the activism of four Canadian NGOs
on issues of refugee rights, hate speech, and the death penalty,
including their use of difficult, often controversial legal cases
as platforms to assert human rights principles and shape judicial
policy-making. The struggles of these NGOs reveal not only the
fragility but also the resilience of ideas about rights in liberal
democracies.
