Human rights are conceptualised as assemblages of relatively stable, but not unchanging, historically situated, and socially embedded practices. Drawing on an emerging iconoclastic historiography of human rights, the author provides a sympathetic yet critical overview of the field of the sociology of human rights. The book addresses debates regarding sociology's relationships to human rights, the strengths and limits of the notion of practice, human rights' affinity to postnational citizenship and cosmopolitism, and human rights' curious, yet fateful, entanglement with the law.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eHuman Rights as Political Imaginary \u003c\/i\u003ewill be of interest to students and scholars across a range of disciplines, including sociology, politics, international relations and criminology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e José Julián López\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030089525\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030089528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/12\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 475\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.98d","brand":"José Julián López","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44450220081407,"sku":"9783030089528","price":139.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_73ee549f-5ddd-4e37-b031-3c01e68f4bb6.jpg?v=1698503501","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/human-rights-as-political-imaginary-jos-juli-n-l-pez-9783030089528","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
