- Human Rights and Radical Social Transformation is a monograph based on sustained research effort over a period of six years. The work’s contribution is to take critical engagement with the theory and practice of human rights in a new direction by developing an extended argument for reimagining human rights as a radical, futural-focused discourse. Development of this argument involved sustained engagement with a number of bodies of literature, including human rights theory, critical legal theory, radical democratic thinking, and feminist philosophy. The book, accordingly, presents a detailed and interdisciplinary analysis stemming from extensive work mastering expertise across these diverse areas.
