Bridging the gap between theory and practice in international human rights law and policy, the contributors continue discussions that were begun with the late Argentine philosopher-lawyer Carlos Santiago Nino, then extend those conversations in new directions inspired by their own and Nino's work. The book focuses on some of the key questions that confront the international human rights movement today. What is the moral justification for the concept and content of universal human rights? What is the relationship among nation-building, constitutionalism, and democracy? What are the political implications for a conception of universal human rights? What is the relationship between moral principles and political practice? How should a society confront what Kant called radical evil? And how does a successor regime justly and practically hold a prior regime accountable for gross violations of human rights? 517 1 $aDeliberative democracy & human rights 606 $aDemocracy 606 $aDemocracy$zUnited States 606 $aHuman rights 606 $aHuman rights$zUnited States 606 $aRepresentative government and representation 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aDemocracy. 615 0$aDemocracy 615 0$aHuman rights. 615 0$aHuman rights 615 0$aRepresentative government and representation. 676 $a323 700 $aKoh$b Harold, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01047722 701 $aKoh$b Harold Hongju$f1954-$0240790 701 $aSlye$b Ronald$01047723 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451795503321 996 $aDeliberative democracy and human rights$92475517 997 $aUNINA
