Book synopsis

This book presents a collection of the most relevant perspectives in contemporary human rights philosophy. Different intellectual traditions are brought together to explore some of the core issues, thus providing a comprehensive understanding of the actual challenges human rights philosophy faces today. This accessible volume explores the insights of some of the most prominent philosophers and political theorists in the field. It is particularly suitable for human rights theorists as well as master and doctoral students. The books is organized into three main sections: an introductory part covering theories of rights, a central part on the different philosophical strategies for the justification of human rights, and a final section that addresses the issue of human rights and global justice. This set-up provides readers with a growing and interconnecting set of problems and possible applications.
