Book Synopsis Universal Rights Down to Earth (Norton Global Ethics Series) by : Richard Thompson Ford
Book excerpt: "Universal Rights Down to Earth takes up a relatively simple inquiry: what is gained (and what is lost) by describing a question as a matter of universal rights? As we enter what may well turn out to be the human rights century, several questions about the scope, efficacy, and potential costs of human rights are becoming pressing. In his search for answers, esteemed legal expert and author Richard Thompson Ford takes us from Italy to India, from Japan to the United States, to explore what works and what does not when we try to change the lives of millions for the better."--P. [4] of jacket.
