{"product_id":"decolonizing-human-rights-abdullahi-ahmed-an-naim-9781108417136","title":"Decolonizing Human Rights","description":"In his extensive body of work, Professor Abdullahi Ahmed An-Naim challenges both historical interpretations of Islamic Sharia and neo-colonial understanding of human rights. To advance the rationale of scholarship for social change, An-Naim proposes advancing the universality of human rights through internal discourse within Islamic and African societies and cross-cultural dialogue among human cultures. This book proposes a transformation from human rights organized around a state determined practice to one that is focused on a people-centric approach that empowers individuals to decide how human rights will be understood and integrated into their communities. Decolonizing Human Rights aims to illustrate the decisive role of human agency on the subject of change, without implying that Islamic or any other society are exceptionally disposed to politically motivated violence and consequent profound political instability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Abdullahi Ahmed An-Naim\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1108417132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108417136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/09\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.44d","brand":"Abdullahi Ahmed An-Naim","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43944743829759,"sku":"9781108417136","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_c6c94ef5-6e39-4dad-9071-154468e18101.jpg?v=1681504918","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/decolonizing-human-rights-abdullahi-ahmed-an-naim-9781108417136","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
