{"product_id":"cosmopolitanism-and-human-rights-sharon-anderson-gold-9780708316726","title":"Cosmopolitanism and Human Rights","description":"If human rights express the equal claim of every person to the recognition and protection of their vital interests, they necessarily assert universal obligations of justice that cross borders. Sharon Anderson-Gold asks here whether there is a normative consensus on human rights and articulates the role of a cosmopolitan or global community in shaping the theory and practice of international politics. She considers several important works in the field of universal human rights and discusses whether a cosmopolitan system of law is a necessary condition for the stable association of nation states. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eCosmopolitanism and Human Rights\u003c\/i\u003e presents an ethical foundation for the idea of human development and attempts to demonstrate the normative character of universal human rights. It claims that Kant's idea of a federation of nations based upon principles of international right remains highly relevant to contemporary aspirations for global justice, and concludes by suggesting that a 'cosmopolitan community' is the locus of a global democratic order and is the necessary framework for the maintenance of human rights.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sharon Anderson-Gold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0708316727\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780708316726\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Wales Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/30\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 166\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.86w x 0.32d","brand":"Sharon Anderson-Gold","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47135244386559,"sku":"9780708316726","price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5274cbbd-72ec-47e6-8006-954299488411.jpg?v=1755009565","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cosmopolitanism-and-human-rights-sharon-anderson-gold-9780708316726","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
