Starting with the realities of abuse rather than the liberal architectures of rights, it casts human rights as a language for probing the political dimensions of suffering. Three case studies are explored - the Tiananmen Square massacre, East Timor's violent modern history, and the circumstances of Indigenous Australians. |
