Human Rights Education and the Politics of Knowledge

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book is a critical inquiry into the production, distribution and consumption of human rights education and how the discourse is constructed historically, socially and politically through global institutions and local NGO practice. Drawing on socio-legal scholarship it offers a new theoretical and political framework for addressing how human rights, pedagogy, knowledge and power can be analysed between the global and local by connecting the critical theories of human rights to insights on critical pedagogy. It uses critical discourse analysis and ethnographic research to investigate the practice of HRE using findings from fieldwork with NGOs and communities in Tanzania.
