Textul de pe ultima copertă
“Appealing to cognate Christian and Confucian virtues, Yuen argues, lets us contextualize rights discourse; so that the Church’s teaching truly becomes learning. Yuen has made an immense contribution, not only in applying rights to the suffering of migrant women in Hong Kong, but to our reimagining rights and their place in our Christian heritage. She has taught us not only to grieve, but to act.”
—William O’Neill, S.J., Professor Emeritus, Jesuit School of Theology of Santa Clara University, USA
