The United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights in 1948. A burgeoning human rights
movement followed, yielding many treaties and new international
institutions and shaping the constitutions and laws of many states.
Yet human rights continue to be contested politically and legally
and there is substantial philosophical and theoretical debate over
their foundations and implications. In this volume distinguished
philosophers, political scientists, international lawyers,
environmentalists and anthropologists discuss some of the most
difficult questions of human rights theory and practice: What do
human rights require of the global economy? Does it make sense to
secure them by force? What do they require in jus post bello
contexts of transitional justice? Is global climate change a human
rights issue? Is there a human right to democracy? Does the human
rights movement constitute moral progress? For students of
political philosophy, human rights, peace studies, and
international relations.
