The Concept of Human Rights (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

First published in 1985. In this study, Donnelly distinguishes between "having a right" and "being right" and elaborates the distinction with great subtlety to show that rights have to be understood as action and not as a possession. This title will be of great interest to students of politics and philosophy.
