ISBN: 9780521887816 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Economic globalisation and universal human rights both have the aspiration and power to improve and enrich individuals and communities.

ISBN: 9781439900543 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Political violence does not end with the last death. A common feature of mass murder has been the attempt at destroying any memory of victims, with the aim of eliminating them from history. Perpetrators seek not only to eliminate a perceived threat, but also to eradicate any possibility of alternate, competing social and national histories. In his timely and important book, "Unchopping a Tree," Ernesto Verdeja develops a critical justification for why transitional justice works. He asks, 'What is the balance between punishment and forgiveness? And, 'What are the stakes in reconciling?'...

ISBN: 9780230542228 / Angielski / Twarda / 271 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Against the backdrop of globalization and mounting evidence of the corporate subversion of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights paradigm, Anna Grear interrogates the complex tendencies within law that are implicated in the emergence of 'corporate humanity'.

Human Rights and their Limits
ISBN: 9780521110273 / Angielski / Twarda / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Human Rights and Their Limits shows that the concept of human rights has developed in waves: each call for rights served the purpose of social groups that tried to stop further proliferation of rights once their own goals were reached. While defending the universality of human rights as norms of behavior, Osiaty ski admits that the philosophy on human rights does not need to be universal. Instead he suggests that the enjoyment of social rights should be contingent upon the recipient s contribution to society. He calls for a soft universalism that will not impose rights on others but will...
