Description

The Proliferation of Rights by Routledge explores the dramatic expansion of rights assertions since World War II, tracing historical developments across human rights, civil rights, women's rights, patient rights, and animal rights. Carl Wellman, a distinguished university professor in the humanities at Washington University in St. Louis, examines each major category of rights and assesses the philosophical implications of this proliferation. This book provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of how rights discourse has evolved over decades, offering critical analysis of whether this expansion represents genuine moral progress or rhetorical flourishes without substance. Wellman's expertise in ethics and philosophy of law brings scholarly depth to contemporary debates surrounding rights, making this work essential for students, academics, and anyone interested in understanding the modern rights landscape and its philosophical foundations.
