Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About The Book: The great gift of classical and contemporary human thoughts to culture and civilization is the notion of human rights. It is important that different groups of society, particularly disadvantages groups of society, should be recipient of human rights. There are dissimil…ar human groups living in society who are in need of protection for their human rights. Separate laws for recognition and enforcement of their human rights are needed to be enacted by the state. Much has been said about Human Rights in India by political scientists, legal experts and social scientists but no specific work has been carried out so far in various human groups. The present work has been pursued with an aim to visualise the reality that exists today with special reference to various rights among Indian populations.,It has been argued that there needs to be a change in the paradigm for evaluating compliance with the norms in the covenant if human rights are to be taken seriously. It is time for nongovernmental organizations, governments and human rights monitoring bodies to reorient their work towards identifying and rectifying violations, taking help from social scientists in general and anthropologists in particular. The book will be useful to legal experts, human rights activists, social scientists, international and national NGO's, apart from human rights monitoring bodies, planners, law and social science students, general public and police administration., About The Author: Shilpy Gupta did her M.Sc. and Ph.D. In Anthropology from University of Delhi, Delhi (India).
