Description:

Brought to you by renowned scholar, Judith Blau, this ground-breaking anthology examines the implications that human rights have for the social sciences. The book provides readers with a wide-ranging collection of articles, each written by experts in their fields, which argue for an expansion of fundamental human rights in the United States. To provide an international context, the volume covers the human rights treaties that have been incorporated into the constitutions of a wide range of countries throughout the world, including wealthy countries such as Spain and Sweden as well as impoverished countries such as Bolivia and Croatia.
