With particular focus on the Hindu caste system, this book
represents a comprehensive analysis of the elimination of all forms
of racial discrimination in international law. It evaluates the
strategies that have informed the work of the United Nations in
this area, mapping a new path that moves from standard-setting to
implementation. Combining legal analysis with the meaning and
origin of caste, it explores the remedies human rights law can
propose towards the prohibition of caste-based discrimination, and
the abolition of the caste system itself. The book provides a
benchmark on the achievements of the international community in
combating all forms of racial discrimination, and the policies that
must inform future measures. With its clear and accessible style
this volume will be of interest to scholars of law and human
rights, as well as policy-makers and practitioners working in this
area.
