Although human rights remains the leitmotiv of Professor Baehr's career, the themes explored in this collection-- the role of the nation-state in the 21st century, international organisations and foreign policy--are a reflection of the versatility of his work and the range of his interests.
This volume thus offers the reader a stimulating collection of essays by a wide range of international experts on both the theory and the practice of human rights within the context of the nation-state of the 21st century.
