Political control & freedoms
Paperback. By tracing the relativist and universalist arguments of human rights through such issues as criminal justice, women's rights, and ethnicity, the contributors forge a new way of looking at this dichotomy. This new view is articulated as a sort of "chastened universalism," not as concerned with searching for pre-existing common values among different cultures, but for ways to create them. Editor(s): Bell, Lynda S.; Nathan, Andrew J.; Cao, Liqun; Levine, Steven J.; Peleg, Ilan. Num Pages: 364 pages. BIC Classification: JFC; JPS; JPVH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational.
