The idea of human rights

---

This book examines the philosophical, historical, and political foundations of human rights, tracing their evolution from moral concepts to codified international norms. It explores competing theories about the universality and relativity of rights, their relationship to justice and democracy, and their application in diverse cultural contexts. By analyzing both supportive and critical perspectives, the book provides a nuanced understanding of how the idea of human rights has shaped modern governance and global order. It serves as a key reference for students, scholars, and practitioners seeking to grasp the conceptual underpinnings of contemporary human rights discourse.
