Maggiori informazioni sul libro

This book offers a collection of contemporary perspectives on human rights education, drawing from various intellectual, legal, political, and philosophical traditions. It addresses issues that challenge conventional justifications and aims to provide insights accessible to both experts and non-experts. Contributors focus on promoting change during times of transition and crisis, emphasizing the need for ongoing vigilance from diverse participants, including academia, government, NGOs, and emerging human rights practitioners. The essays delve into the complex relationship between legal norms and entitlements, highlighting ongoing debates about fairness in established law and the reinforcement of rights. They draw attention to both upheld and violated human rights, which serve as crucial reference points that can constrain the actions of governing bodies and limit their arbitrariness. These contributions stem from discussions at the Third “Human Rights Education” Congress held in December 2012 in Krakow, Poland, and Auschwitz, a site of profound historical significance as a Nazi concentration and death camp during World War II. The collection reflects a commitment to understanding and advancing human rights education in a multifaceted and evolving context.
