Written in an style intended to speak to both academics and a general audience, The Consequences of Rights addresses what it means to encounter the human rights concept and advocate for rights from the position of the university academic but in the face of the reality that rights are the ultimate The Consequences of Rights addresses three questions: how, in the face of the notion that all ideas are historical (and hence norms change), can one justify defending human rights, what governmental systems might be suggested by human rights conceptsThe Consequences of Rights takes on these topics, inviting the public and scholars alike to consider their views on such problems.
Ben Dorfman’s new book offers plenty of insights in an excellent and thought-provoking contribution to the scholarship on human rights and philosophy, global governance, and aesthetics. It stands out with delightful prose, beyond the common academic style, ingeniously relating theory on those decisive issues to the threats and dilemmas of the present.
