Irrational Human Rights? An Examination of International Human Rights Treaties de Naiade el-Khoury

Irrational Human Rights? An Examination of International Human Rights Treaties: International Studies in Human Rights, cartea 135

Autor Naiade el-Khoury
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 dec 2020
In Irrational Human Rights? An Examination of International Human Rights Treaties Naiade el-Khoury pursues the question how effective international human rights treaties really are and offers a discussion on the effects of treaty mechanisms. Such an examination as to the effects of international human rights treaties, or rather their limits, puts prevalent views of international law to the test. In doing so, this book convincingly argues that rational theories are inadequate to grasp the full effect of international human rights treaties.
