Touching on the fundamentals of human rights theory and practice in a global context at multiple levels of development, this book’s focus moves from global to local, beginning with a structural
examination of human rights policy and practice in international governmental institutions and following with analyses of human rights-related dynamics operating within various localities and
states. The impetus driving the analysis found in the following chapters are freedom from hardship, persecution, and abuse, and the right to be treated equally in relation to the rest of the
society. Twenty chapters are divided into two sections: development and human rights. Annotation ©2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
