Culture and Rights: Anthropological Perspectives

book
posted on 2023-06-07, 15:07 authored by Richard Wilson, Marie-Benedicte Dembour, Jane Cowan
Do people everywhere have the same, or even compatible, ideas about multiculturalism, indigenous rights or women's rights? The authors of this book move beyond the traditional terms of the universalism-versus-cultural relativism debate. Through detailed case studies from around the world (Hawai'i, France, Thailand, Botswana, Greece, Nepal and Canada) they explore the concrete effects of rights talk and rights institutions on people's lives.
