UNIVERSAL HUMAN RIGHTS IN THEORY AND PRACTICE (3RD EDITION)
	         Book ID/图书代码: 03360016B88390
		     English Summary/英文概要: In the third edition of his classic work, revised extensively and updated to include recent developments on the international scene, Jack Donnelly explains and defends a richly interdisciplinary account of human rights as universal rights. He shows that any conception of human rights―and the idea of human rights itself―is historically specific and contingent. Since publication of the first edition in 1989, Universal Human Rights in Theory and Practice has justified Donnelly’s claim that "conceptual clarity, the fruit of sound theory, can facilitate action. At the very least it can help to unmask the arguments of dictators and their allies."
             Chinese Summary/中文概要: 这本经典之作的第三版经过了广泛的修改和更新,其中囊括了国际舞台上最近的事态发展。Jack Donnelly解释和辩护了为什么人权应该被视作普世权利。他表示,人权和人权理念的概念本身在历史上都是特殊的、依特定情况而定的。自1989年出版本书的第一版以来,本书一直佐证着Donnelly的观点,即“概念清晰,理论翔实,操作简便。至少,它可以帮助揭下那些独裁者和盟国的面具。”(LYR)
             Awards/获奖情况:每过一段时间,就会有那么一本书,用如此清晰和具有挑战性的方式来探讨一些重要的问题,并成为深入研究这一问题的主要读物。本书就是这样一本书。 Donnelly的阐述是明确的,他的争论也是充满激情的。(《American Political Science Review》就之前的版本发表的评论)
本书着眼于人权的各个方面,对政治理论、社会学、国际关系以及国际法律都有涉及。(《Foreign Reviews》就之前的版本发表的评论)
Donnelly所写的内容比其他任何人都很好地为读者理解作为国际生活的一个部分的国际人权问题奠定了概念和框架。本书是阅读有关人权书籍时最不可或缺的一本。(《Human Rights&Human Welfare》就之前的版本发表的评论)
"Every once in a while a book appears that treats the leading issues of a subject in such a clear and challenging manner that it becomes central to understanding that subject. Universal Human Rights in Theory and Practice is just such a book. Donnelly’s interpretations are clear and argued with zest."―American Political Science Review (reviewing a previous edition)
"This wide-ranging book looks at all aspects of human rights, drawing on political theory, sociology, and international relations as well as international law."―Foreign Affairs (reviewing a previous edition)
"What Donnelly does better than anyone else is to lay before the reader a coherent conceptual framework for an understanding of international human rights as an operative part of international life. The book remains at the top of any bibliography of indispensable books dealing with human rights."―Human Rights & Human Welfare (reviewing a previous edition)
