Using a cross-national comparative approach, this book presents national case studies that explore the similarities and differences of conceptualizing rights on both sides of the Atlantic. This book analyses the struggle for these rights by individuals and groups and how this struggle became an essential feature not only in political discourse but also in social and political practice and culture in both Germany and the United States. More specifically, the book examines the different ways rights have been denied due to race, ethnicity, gender and sexual orientation. Considerable attention is given to the impact of Nazism and the struggle for social rights during and after World War II. 410 0$aPublications of the German Historical Institute. 606 $aHuman rights$zUnited States$vCongresses 606 $aHuman rights$zGermany$vCongresses 606 $aCivil rights$zUnited States$vCongresses 606 $aCivil rights$zGermany$vCongresses 615 0$aHuman rights 615 0$aHuman rights 615 0$aCivil rights 615 0$aCivil rights 676 $a323/.0943 702 $aBerg$b Manfred$f1959- 702 $aGeyer$b Martin H. 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450506603321 996 $aTwo cultures of rights$9985023 997 $aUNINA
