Scholars in political science and law contribute ten essays revisiting the debate between universalists and cultural relativists, and also engage new notions of "third-generation" rights. After an analytical framework encompassing changing perspectives on human rights, subsequent essays address specific human rights issues, globally and in particular regions. The final chapter considers the impact, negative and positive, of globalization on human rights, as well as the effect that human rights doctrines and practices may have on the processes of globalization.
