The Implementation of Human Rights in a Global World

This anthology is an attempt to overview the complexity of the processof implementing and enlarging a human rights praxis and to diminish human suffering. The recognition and implementation of human rights are the results of unique and concrete social, political, economic and cultural processes that cannot be ignored or mechanically replicated. It only asks for further research and understanding within a cross-cultural perspective including gender, ecological and ethnic issues. The research agenda also implies an interdisciplinary and integrated approach of human rights.
