This edited book adopts a prescriptive and culturally relative narrative to understand
and critique human rights within Asia. Simultaneously, it aims to understand how
human rights, especially, such as women's rights, are practised and protected by
Asian nations.
The book evaluates the realisation of Eurocentric human rights by Asian states in line
with their domestic needs and priorities. It delineates the alien nature of western
standards of human rights for Asia. Contributors focus on varied geographical
contexts including South Asia, China, and Vietnam. The chapters also cover the
protection of women’s rights in conflict zones in Myanmar, Kashmir and Afghanistan,
as well as regional human rights mechanisms.
Covering a diverse region, this book will be of interest to researchers and students of
international human rights, feminism and gender studies, particularly in the Asian
context.
