The core idea, that all human beings have some inalienable basic rights, is appealing and has an eminently practical function: It allows moral criticism of various wrongs and calls for action in order to prevent them. On the other hand it is unclear what exactly a human right is. Human rights lack a convincing conceptual foundation that would be able to compel the wrong-doer to accept human rights claims as well-founded. Hence the practical function faces theoretical doubts. The present collection takes up the tension between the wide political use of human rights claims and the intellectual skepticism about them. In particular two major issues are identified that call for conceptual clarification in order to better understand human rights claims both in theory and in practice: the question of how to justify human rights and the tension between universal normative claims and particular moralities. 606 $aHuman rights$xPhilosophy 610 $aEthics. 610 $aHuman Rights. 610 $aJustification. 610 $aUniversalism. 615 0$aHuman rights$xPhilosophy. 676 $a323.01 686 $aMD 4700$2rvk 700 $aErnst$b Gerhard$4auth 701 $aErnst$b Gerhard$f1971-$0919308 701 $aHeilinger$b Jan-Christoph$0910169 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910168749203321 996 $aThe philosophy of human rights$92061821 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03547nam 2200613 a 450 001 9910778420203321 005 20231103223811.0 010 $a1-282-40036-3 010 $a9786612400360 010 $a90-474-2470-0 024 7 $a10.1163/ej.9789004171398.i-182 035 $a(CKB)1000000000807275 035 $a(EBL)467921 035 $a(OCoLC)567549174 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000333767 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11259078 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000333767 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10378121 035 $a(PQKB)10195427 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC467921 035 $a(OCoLC)237047632 035 $a(nllekb)BRILL9789047424703 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL467921 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10349330 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL240036 035 $a(PPN)184924278 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000807275 100 $a20080728d2009 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$a1917$b[electronic resource] $ebeyond the Western Front /$fedited by Ian F.W.

While the Western Front was facing these challenges, 1917 was also marked by the collapse of Tsarist Russia and by food riots resuting both from the Entente's blockade of Central Europe and the revival of unrestricted submarine warfare by the Central Powers. Ottoman Turkey was feeling the strain of war as well, as British forces advanced in both Palestine and Mesopotamia. For states as yet uncommitted to war, such as the United States and China, 1917 was a year of decision. This volume amply illustrates the significance of this crucial year in the global conflict. Contributors are Lawrence Sondhaus, Eric Grove, Keith Grieves, Matthew Hughes, Kaushik Roy, Vanda Wilcox, Laura Rowe, and Nick Hewitt. 410 0$aHistory of warfare ;$vv. 54. 606 $aWorld War, 1914-1918 615 0$aWorld War, 1914-1918. 676 $a940.4 701 $aBeckett$b Ian F.
