Aprašymas

Interdisciplinary Approaches to Human Rights: History, Politics, Practice examines human rights through interdisciplinary, historical, and cross-cultural perspectives, foregrounding both scholarship and practice.

Bringing together contributions from fields including political philosophy, gender and women's studies, Global South/Third World studies, international relations, psychology, and anthropology, the volume explores human rights through diverse methodologies such as oral history, discourse and theoretical analysis, ethnography, and literary and cinema studies. It moves beyond predominantly legalistic frameworks to highlight interdisciplinary and praxis-based approaches, drawing on case studies from Bangladesh, Colombia, Haiti, India, Mexico, Palestine, Sudan, South Africa, Australia, and the United States. This expanded second edition covers regions like West Asia, the Niger Delta, the Caribbean, and juridical, artistic, autoethnographic, activist, environmental, and visual interrogations of human rights horizons.

This book is ideal for students, researchers, practitioners, policy makers, and activists interested in human rights studies. It is particularly relevant for those exploring the philosophical, political, cultural, economic, and historical forces that shape human rights across global contexts.
