Elgar Advanced Introductions are stimulating and thoughtful
introductions to major fields in the social sciences and law,
expertly written by the world's leading scholars. Designed to be
accessible yet rigorous, they offer concise and lucid surveys of
the substantive and policy issues associated with discrete subject
areas. This thought-provoking introduction provides an incisive
overview of dignity law, a field of law emerging in every region of
the globe that touches all significant aspects of the human
experience. Through an examination of the burgeoning case law in
this area, James R. May and Erin Daly reveal a strong overlapping
consensus surrounding the meaning of human dignity as a legal right
and a fundamental value of nations large and small, and how this
global jurisprudence is redefining the relationship between
individuals and the state. Key features include: Analyses of cases
from a range of jurisdictions all over the world A history of the
shift of the concept of dignity from a philosophical idea to a
legally enforceable right Discussion of dignity as a value and a
right in different major legal contexts, and its roots in African,
Asian, European and Islamic traditions. This Advanced Introduction
will be invaluable to scholars and students of law, particularly
those interested in human rights, looking to understand this
emerging area of law. It will inform lawyers, judges, policymakers
and other advocates interested in how dignity and the law can be
used to protect everyone, including the most vulnerable among us.
