Rezensionen

"The newest version of this splendid survey of the principles and practice of human rights is an essential reference for human rights pedagogy and scholarship. It is thorough, thoughtful, and comprehensive, providing a holistic and timely picture of the struggle for human dignity worldwide. The balance between theory, institutions, and coverage of contemporary cases make this book an ideal introduction to human rights."

Alison Brysk, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA.

"From its inception, International Human Rights has been the gold standard of human rights textbooks. The 6th edition not only provides an update of human rights practices, but it will also actively engage students in the material -- and the world around them."
