An invaluable resource for readers seeking to understand how
traditional religious ideas and values relate to modern ideas of
human rights, how Western models of human rights are perceived in
non-Western traditions, and what these traditions may have to offer
in the realm of human rights. Together, the authors work to
reassess both the rich and diverse resources of the major religious
traditions and some of the most challenging problems of the
contemporary world. The collection's central theme is the way in
which the diversity of religious beliefs and practices -- from
Judaism, Christianity, and Islam to Hinduism, Buddhism, and
Confucianism -- relates and can come in conflict with the moral
universalism implied by the concept of human rights.
