International Human Rights Law

International Human Rights Law provides a student and practice-oriented examination of the law of international human rights, suitable for either a two- or three-credit course or seminar. The book is designed to take full advantage of excellent web-based resources relating to international human rights, providing hyperlinks and website ULRs throughout the materials. Its orientation is less theoretical and more practical than other available offerings in the subject, with a focus on international and domestic institutional remedies for addressing current human rights violations. The new edition incorporates recent newsworthy human rights situations and legal developments in both international and U.S. domestic law.
