Faith in Human Rights: Support in Religious Traditions for a Global Struggle

Couverture
Georgetown University Press, 1991 - 239 pages
Despite the diversity of religious faith traditions around the world, a common concern has led to a remarkably unified call for establishing and respecting human rights from Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, and followers of indigenous African and Asian traditions. Indeed, the expression "faith in human rights," first used in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, regularly appears in statements by human rights advocates who express no particular religious commitment.
