{"product_id":"human-rights-in-islamic-societies-paperback-softback","title":"Human Rights in Islamic Societies - Paperback \/ softback","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book compares Islamic and Western ideas of human rights in order to ascertain which human rights, if any, can be considered universal. This is a profound topic with a rich history that is highly relevant within global politics and society today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe arguments in this book are formed by bringing William Talbott’s \u003ci\u003eWhich Rights Should Be Universal? \u003c\/i\u003e(2005) and Abdulaziz Sachedina’s\u003ci\u003e Islam and the Challenge of Human Rights\u003c\/i\u003e (2014) into conversation. By bridging the gap between cultural relativists and moral universalists, this book seeks to offer a new model for the understanding of human rights. It contends that human rights abuses are outcomes of complex systems by design and\/or by default. Therefore, it proposes that a rigorous systems-thinking approach will contribute to addressing the challenge of human rights. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEngaging with Islamic and Western, historical and contemporary, and relativist and universalist thought, this book is a fresh take on a perennially important issue. As such, it will be a first-rate resource for any scholars working in religious studies, Islamic studies, Middle East studies, ethics, sociology, and law and religion.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45566270767342,"sku":"9780367776176","price":63.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/human-rights-in-islamic-societies-paperback-softback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
