DESCRIPTION |
|
The concept of human rights has assumed importance globally during the past few decades. Ever since the proclamation of Universal declaration of Human rights, the term human rights has gained currency and has become a crucial element of philosophical, social and political debates. While there is increasingly widespread concern for universal respect and observance of human rights, gross violation of internationally recognized norms continue unabated in almost all parts of the globe. Countless people around the world suffer from hunger, disease and lack of opportunity, and they are being denied the enjoyment of the most basic economic, social and cultural rights. Against this background, this anthology of articles contributed by renowned academicians, jurists, and experienced administrators embodies critical analysis of various aspects of human rights, both in theoretical and practical terms, and makes valuable suggestions for uplifting human rights awareness in India. The volume contains in-depth and illuminating discussions on wide ranging issues and areas of human rights, viz., pubic law of human rights, impact of globalization on human rights, police and human rights, human rights and self-descriptive communities, human rights and empowerment, child labour and human rights, constitutional position of human rights and tribal development and human rights. |
