Riassunto

This is an exploration of the moral and pragmatic dilemmas involved in the relationships between states in an era of change, derived from a workshop held by the Centre for International Policy Studies attended by scholars, lawyers, human rights activists, public servants from Britain and Europe, and the United States and Asia. The particular concern of those present was to examine the moral underpinnings of human rights in the contemporary world and to evaluate how, if at all, these effect the relations between states. The first part of the book covers both the theoretical foundations of human rights and contemporary state practice. The second part explicates these concerns from a number of perspectives.
