Here five leading thinkers from varied disciplines--including history, law, politics, and literary studies--discuss the critical basis of rights and the meaning of radical democratic politics today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephanie Degooyer, Alastair Hunt, Lida Maxwell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 178478754X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781784787547\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Verso\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/13\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 5.40w x 0.60d","brand":"Stephanie Degooyer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43991128965375,"sku":"9781784787547","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_03cfac62-5d00-4086-8cc5-4195aff94ff1.jpg?v=1683308598","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-right-to-have-rights-stephanie-degooyer-9781784787547","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
