The terrorist attacks against US targets on September 11, 2001, and the subsequent wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, sparked an intense debate about 'human rights.' This book includes essays which examine the historical and intellectual context for the modern debate about human rights, and the racial implications of the war on terrorism.
