Constructing Human Rights in the Age of Globalization (International Relations in a Constructed World) by Mahmood Monshipouri

by Mahmood Monshipouri

Arguing that globalization has generated ferment, conflict, and opposition rather than the predicted harmonious cosmopolitan order, contributors to this volume discuss the specific ways that the discourse and institutions of human rights have been altered to accommodate many meanings, as diverse groups struggle to construct human rights arguments to press their very different, often diametrically opposed, goals and values.
