Description

Explore the origins of our modern international order with this volume from Cambridge University Press. This book offers the first global history of human rights politics during the age of decolonization. It examines how the struggle between colonial powers and independence movements helped shape the human rights framework that emerged after the Second World War. Readers will learn how anti-colonial forces used the language of self-determination to drive their campaigns. At the same time, the text explains how European empires used new international politics to justify their continued rule. This historical analysis provides necessary context for understanding the birth of contemporary humanitarian movements and global human rights organizations. It is an essential resource for students and researchers studying the history of international relations and global politics.
