Description
This fully revised and extended edition explains and defends the contemporary conception of human rights. Combining philosophical, legal and political approaches, it provides a clear understanding of international human rights law and addresses questions of justification and feasibility.
The book covers fundamental freedoms, due process rights, social rights, and minority rights, and is updated throughout to include developments in law, politics, and theory since the publication of the first edition. New features for this edition include an extensive bibliography and a chapter on human rights and terrorism.
