The Rhetorical Invention of Man: A History of Distinguishing Humans from Other Animals
ISBN: 9781498509305 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book draws attention to the logical contradictions, unstable premises, and unquestioned assumptions that underlie arguments about Man's distinction, while also demonstrating that the way we think about nonhuman animals is only one possibility among many.

Since the end of the Cold War, there has been a dramatic expansion in both the international human rights system and the transnational networks of activists, development organizations, and monitoring agencies that partially reinforce it.

The Practice of Human Rights: Tracking Law Between the Global and the Local

But how do human rights work? What do they do? Drawing on anthropological studies of human rights work from around the world, this book examines human rights in practice. It shows how groups and organizations mobilize human rights language in a variety of local settings, often differently from those imagined by human rights law itself. The case studies reveal the contradictions and ambiguities of human rights approaches to various forms of violence. They show that this openness is not a failure of universal human rights as...
