In Beyond Parliament Horman Chitonge offers a unique combination of
the conceptual dimensions with the practical examples of human
rights discourse deployed as an instrument for social change in the
global south. He uses the right to water and the right to food to
illustrate that human rights are never given on a silver platter;
giving effect to human rights is always an outcome of a continuous
struggle to protect human dignity and value. To implement this view
of human rights, the book argues, requires going beyond the
parliamentary politics of recognising and acknowledging human
rights in statutes and bill of rights to the radical democratic
politics of giving effect to the recognised rights, especially
among the poor and marginalised.
