A THEMATIC INTRODUCTION TO HUMAN RIGHTS LAW ( MALAYSIAN AND INTERNATIONAL PERSPECTIVE )

Specifically designed for educational use in the field of international relations, law and political and social science, A Thematic Introduction to Human Rights Law provides a basic, but fundamental overture to multiple human rights concepts such as the human rights system and its implementation problems and processes involving international, national, and non-governmental actions. This book takes a different approach in introducing human rights law by critically reflecting on the multifarious global large-scale issues and concerns that have occurred in the field of human rights, and provokes readers to think in order to understand human rights law. Besides covering topics integral to the theory and practice of international human rights law, the book also offers a broader perspective through the examination of the ways in which human rights law interacts with other legal regimes and other international institutions, and by addressing the current and future challenges facing human rights.
