Human rights have become a defining feature of contemporary
society, permeating public discourse on politics, law and culture.
But why did human rights emerge as a key social force in our time
and what is the relationship between rights and the structures of
both national and international society? By highlighting the
institutional and socio-cultural context of human rights, this
timely and thought-provoking collection provides illuminating
insights into the emergence and contemporary societal significance
of human rights. Drawn from both sides of the Atlantic and adhering
to refreshingly different theoretical orientations, the
contributors to this volume show how sociology can develop our
understanding of human rights and how the emergence of human rights
relates to classical sociological questions such as social change,
modernisation or state formation. Making Human Rights Intelligible
provides an important sociological account of the development of
international human rights. It will be of interest to human rights
scholars and sociologists of law and anyone wishing to deepen their
understanding of one of the most significant issues of our time.
