Inhaltsangabe

The western concept of human rights needs a critical assessment as concerns grow that one should not draw the line just at individual rights or political rights. Human rights should be considered in a much broader context. There is a need to consider the socio-cultural traditions of different societies, particularly their pluralistic character. Finally comes the question of development-development in the context of globalization process, the relation of development with environment, the question of growth, and growth with justice and equality. Especially in the context of disadvantaged people, "development" programs are often responsible for displacement. This has happened in different parts of the world. Cross-cultural discussion on these issues will help to formulate a proper development strategy and reduce suffering. The twenty-five papers included in this volume cover different situations, issues, and problems related to human rights from all over the world. The findings included here will create interest and awareness among scholars and researchers working in the fields of anthropology, human rights, sociology, and political science. The book will also be of interest to all people who are concerned about the welfare and development of the population. [Subject: Anthropology, Human Rights, Politics]
