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, which is available in both print and digital formats, is designed to take full advantage of excellent web-based resources relating to international human rights, providing links throughout the materials. Its orientation is less theoretical and more practical than other books on 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.
