The Limits of Human Rights
This volume engages openly and constructively with the question of what limits of human rights are, and what these limits mean. The contributions focus on conceptual questions of human rights, together providing an exceptionally rich spectrum of viewpoints and arguments across disciplines. The volume brings together a group of distinguished scholars from different disciplines who discuss diverse aspects of limits of human rights from various perspectives and in different topical settings, without engaging in a deconstruction or denial of human rights. Each contribution is supplemented by an engaging comment. The combination of perspectives makes this volume a distinct and unique contribution to the contemporary discussion on human rights. It provides fresh insight and much food for further thought for scholars, practitioners, students, and a wider public interested in law, politics, legal and political theory, philosophy, history, sociology, and anthropology, as they relate to human rights.
