520 | _aHow can universal human rights be reconciled with respect for wide cultural differences? This textbook introduces the core issues for students and addresses them through an interdisciplinary analysis of key case studies. Throughout the book, an alternative philosophical framework is offered as a model through which universalism and difference can be reconciled into a single global vision. Helpful student features include: Core questions: each chapter starts with 10 core questions, which students are invited to answer as they read to put what they learn into practice. Every chapter ends with suggestions for further reading, to help students deepen their study in particular areas. Blue text boxes and headings draw your attention to important information and make the book easier to read. | ||
