Zusammenfassung:This clear and compelling book challenges the reader to re-think the entire basis for human rights, providing a vastly different vision of a way forward out of our current quagmire. Mark Gibney persuasively advocates for a much broader reading of the law on state responsibility, arguing that current law misses most of the ways in which states fail to protect human rights and police violations. Calling for other measures to provide victims the effective remedy that international human rights law promises, Gibney sets forth a series of practical steps that would profoundly change the nature of human rights protection.
