Author Description

The new edition of the International Human Rights casebook has been streamlined to focus on the core elements of the subject, while providing ample coverage of core topics for instructors. Section 1 provides both theoretical and practical context for our current International Human Rights Law (IHRL) Framework; Section 3 examines regional differences regarding how IHRL is implemented; and in Section 5 students examine how IHRL intersects with many different fields of law, including humanitarian law, criminal law, and labor law. Other sections examine sources of international law and specific, substantive human rights to provide a comprehensive review.
