The Asia-Pacific is known for having the least developed regional
mechanisms for protecting human rights. This edited collection
makes a timely and distinctive contribution to contemporary debates
about building institutions for human rights protection in the
Asia-Pacific region, in the wake of ASEAN's establishment in 2009
of a sub-regional human rights commission. Drawing together leading
scholarly voices, the book focuses on the systemic issue of
institutionalising human rights protection in the Asia-Pacific. It
critically examines the prospects for deepening and widening human
rights institutions in the region, challenging the orthodox
scepticism about whether the Asia-Pacific is "ready" for stronger
human rights institutions and exploring the variety of possible
forms that regional and sub-regional institutions might take. The
volume also analyses the impediments to new institutions, whilst
questioning the justifications for them. The collection provides a
range of perspectives on the issues and many of the chapters bring
interdisciplinary insights to bear. As such, the collection will be
of interest to scholarly, practitioner, and student audiences in
law, as well as to readers in international relations, political
science, Asian studies, and human rights.
