In Defence of Principles: NGOs and Human Rights in Canada - Brossura
Libro 54 di 116: Law and Society
Sinossi
Since 9/11 and the onset of the “war on terror,” the principal challenge confronting liberal democracies has been to balance freedom with security and individual with collective rights. This book sheds new light on the evolution of human rights norms in liberal democracies by charting the activism of four Canadian NGOs on issues of refugee rights, hate speech, and the death penalty, including their use of difficult, often controversial legal cases as platforms to assert human rights principles and shape judicial policy-making. The struggles of these NGOs reveal not only the fragility but also the resilience of ideas about rights in liberal democracies.

The struggles of these NGOs reveal not only the fragility but also the resilience of ideas about rights in liberal democracies. Codice articolo LU-9780774818629
