Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Human Dignity and Human Rights (2019)

Hoda Mahmoudi and Michael Penn (Eds) 

Another valuable contribution to our understanding of human rights is Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Human Dignity and Human Rights, which examines the notion of human dignity and how it impacts our conception of human rights. Examining this idea from historical, analytical, gendered, national, international, and spiritual lenses, readers will come to understand why the notion of human dignity – a priori, indivisible, unremovable status, value, and sacredness – is so important to the idea of human rights.
