In mapping out the field of human rights for those studying and
researching within both humanities and social science disciplines,
the Handbook of Human Rights not only provides a solid foundation
for the reader who wants to learn the basic parameters of the
field, but also promotes new thinking and frameworks for the study
of human rights in the twenty-first century. The Handbook comprises
over sixty individual contributions from key figures around the
world, which are grouped according to eight key areas of
discussion: foundations and critiques; new frameworks for
understanding human rights; world religious traditions and human
rights; social, economic, group, and collective rights; critical
perspectives on human rights organizations, institutions, and
practices; law and human rights; narrative and aesthetic dimension
of rights; geographies of rights. In its presentation and analysis
of the traditional core history and topics, critical perspectives,
human rights culture, and current practice, this Handbook proves a
valuable resource for all students and researchers with an interest
in human rights.
