Title: From the margins of globalization
Description: "In From the Margins of Globalization: Critical Perspectives on Human Rights, Neve Gordon assembles the work of leading intellectuals and rights activists from around the globe. While highlighting the importance of human rights, each essay in this volume also encourages a critical perspective, stretching, as it were, the conception of human rights beyond its current borders. Whether it's the Iranian president, Mohammad Khatami, writing on the clash of civilizations; Etienne Balibar thinking through universalism, racism, and sexism; or Ruchama Marton discussing the relation between human rights and psychiatry, this volume comprises a challenge to some of the dominant worldviews circulating in the West. This is a must-read for anyone studying human rights or globalization in the fields of anthropology, philosophy, political science, political theory, economy, or sociology."--BOOK JACKET.
