In a thoroughly revised edition of 'Universal human rights in theory and practice' (more than half of the material is new), Jack Donnelly elaborates a theory of human rights, addresses arguments of cultural relativism, and explores the efficacy of bilateral and multilateral international action. Entirely new chapters address prominent post - Cold War issues including humanitarian intervention, democracy and human rights, 'Asian values', group rights, and discrimination against sexual minorities.
