'This book provides a thought-provoking examination of the ever-evolving concepts of rights and justice. It brings together theory with real-world legal challenges, to offer a layered understanding of how justice is pursued—and sometimes denied—in modern society.'
Dragana Spencer, University of Greenwich, UK
'During a political period when it is not universally accepted that the concept of human rights should be an essential feature of the legal architecture, this collection represents an important and timely opportunity to explore both the theory, and the practical potential and limits, of human rights legal discourse.'
Richard Kirkham, University of Sheffield, UK.
