In the third edition of his classic work, revised extensively
and updated to include recent developments on the international
scene, Jack Donnelly explains and defends a richly
interdisciplinary account of human rights as universal rights. He
shows that any conception of human rights and the idea of human
rights itself is historically specific and contingent. Since
publication of the first edition in 1989, Universal Human Rights in
Theory and Practice has justified Donnelly's claim that "conceptual
clarity, the fruit of sound theory, can facilitate action. At the
very least it can help to unmask the arguments of dictators and
their allies.""
