The Social Practice of Human Rights bridges the conventional
scholar-practitioner divide by focusing on the space in between.
The volume brings together cutting-edge chapters that together set
a new agenda for research, grounded in the practice of critical
self-reflection on the strategies that drive communities dedicated
to the advocacy and implementation of human rights. The social
practice of human rights takes place not in front of a judge, but
in the streets and alleys, in the backrooms and out-of-the-way
places where change occurs. Contributors to this volume investigate
the contexts and efforts of activists and professionals devoted to
promoting human rights norms. This research takes as its subject
the organizations and movements that shoulder the burden of
improving respect for human dignity. It argues that through a
constructive critique of these patterns and practices, scholarship
can have a positive impact on the political world.
