Abstract
The Subject of Human Rights is the first book to systematically address the "human" part of "human rights." Drawing on the finest thinking in political theory, cultural studies, history, law, anthropology, and literary studies, this volume examines how human rights―as discourse, law, and practice―shape how we understand humanity and human beings. It asks how the humanness that the human rights idea seeks to protect and promote is experienced.
