This book aims to prospectively conjecture about what the coming
decades may hold for human rights. The authors in this volume
discern where current trends are likely to lead and try to make
sense of the future they herald. Human rights – as a legal,
political, and social practice – have experienced significant
achievements and successes, some notable setbacks and failures, and
numerous unprecedented and unforeseen events and developments.
Sceptics even claim that the idea of human rights has failed to
deliver on its radical promise of emancipation. The chapters in
this volume deal with ways to reimagine the existing human rights
framework, the future of the African human rights system, the place
of human rights in economic policy-making, reparations for chattel
slavery, and the right to free education for all children. The
thematic and disciplinary breadth of contributions makes this book
a resource for scholars, practitioners, and students alike. In
analysing and critically discussing matters of climate change,
right to a healthy environment, preventing disasters and building
resilience, and resource management it provides timely and
important contributions. However, the book does not limit itself to
discussing current-day challenges, it also covers issues concerning
the regulation of artificial intelligence and algorithmic
decision-making, as well as potential paths in the future
relationship between the African and the European Human Rights
Court. Reflections on the Future of Human Rights will be beneficial
to students, scholars, and researchers interested in international
law, human rights, and politics. Overall, the book is suitable for
anyone interested in human rights and their evolution in theory and
practice. The chapters in this book were originally published as a
special issue of Nordic Journal of Human Rights.

In recent years, political philosophers have debated whether human
rights are a special class of moral rights we all possess simply by
virtue of our common humanity and which are universal in time and
space, or whether they are essentially modern political constructs
defined by the role they play in an international legal-political
practice that regulates the relationship between the governments of
sovereign states and their citizens. This edited volume sets out to
further this debate and move it ahead by rethinking some of its
fundamental premises and applying it to new and challenging
domains, such as socio-economic rights, indigenous rights, the
rights of immigrants and the human rights responsibilities of
corporations. Beyond the philosophy of human rights, the book has a
broader relevance by contributing to key themes in the methodology
of political philosophy and addressing urgent issues in
contemporary global policy making.

The past sixty years have seen an expansion of international human
rights conventions and supervisory organs, not least in Europe.
While these international legal instruments have enlarged their
mandate, they have also faced opposition and criticism from
political actors at the state level, even in well-functioning
democracies. Against the backdrop of such contestations, this book
brings together prominent scholars in law, political philosophy and
international relations in order to address the legitimacy of
international human rights regimes as a theoretically challenging
and politically salient case of international authority. It
provides a unique and thorough overview of the legitimacy problems
involved in the global governance of human rights.
