"The Philosophy of Human Rights: International Perspectives provides landmarks, points of orientation, which the lawyer-reader will find very helpful. [Rosenbaum] knows that ... human rights law cannot be adequately understood, unless its philosophical and moral foundations are also explored and taken into account. ... The philosophical studies presented in this volume of collected essays greatly facilitate the task of looking beyond one's own discipline. ...the editor outlines his own perspective on the philosophy of human rights and, in fact, presents an excellent nutshell version of the various philosophical traditions connected with the human rights debate seen through western lenses.... At the same time Rosenbaum charts out the fields of enquiry which the various contributors--all of them philosophers or theologians--then examine in detail from their various perspectives. ... Anybody wishing to cast more than a cursory glance at the history of the human rights movement in Europe is well advised to consult this excellent collection of essays."-German Yearbook of International Law
