This innovative reader brings together key works that demonstrate the important and unique contributions anthropologists have made to the understanding and practice of human rights over the last 60 years.
This book was required reading for a course. Though some of the reading is intense, dense, super academic, or all of the above, it is very, very engrossing. I usually rent textbooks but this one was not available for rent. I'm not terribly upset about that because I can see myself reading this one again. Human rights is an incredibly complicated topic. The selected readings in this book do not make it any less complex but definitely succeed in expanding way one engages with the concepts.
