International Human Rights: Perspectives

International Human Rights- Perspectives from Ireland examines Ireland's engagement to date with the international human rights regime and the manner in which the regime has influenced, and is capable of influencing, the domestic human rights landscape.
International human rights norms are increasingly being taken into account by legislators, courts and public bodies in taking decisions and implementing actions that impact on human rights. This title will feature articles by leading Irish and international academic experts, practitioners and advocates in the human rights field. The book combines both practical analysis and also integrates perspectives from a broad range of actors in the human rights field.
