内容説明

Examining both the theory and practice of human rights in China, this Handbook provides an important analysis of rights in China in comparison to international standards and China's international engagements concerning human rights. A wide range of civil and political, social and economic, and group rights in China are explored from an interdisciplinary perspective. Contributions provide a comprehensive and critical insight to the topic, examining the traditions behind modern human rights in China right up to contemporary issues such as the rise of the Internet and LGBTQ rights that are now at the forefront of attention across the globe. The Handbook also explores human rights in Greater China, and their relationship to rights in mainland China. Each chapter develops arguments surrounding significant issues, together revealing a complex reality where human rights recognition and protections are intertwined with Party-state programs and priorities, modes of governance and the demand for social and political stability. A vital read for international human rights academics and practitioners, this Handbook examines a thorough range of aspects of human rights in China. It would also be a useful read for international relations and Chinese studies scholars, as well as those with a keen interest in modern China. Contributors include: S.C. Angle, H. Aubie, A. Beck, T. Biao, S. Biddulph, A. Brettell, T.C. Chen, J. Chia, S. Cook, M.C. Davis, A. Datt, M. Elfstrom, A. Garwood-Gowers, S. Hallett, J.P. Horsley, F. Huafling, L.A. Jacobs, J. Jue, L. Jun, A. Kent, K. Kinzelbach, M.K. Lewis, W. Muller, O. Naftali, E. Nesossi, E. Pils, P. Potter, J. Rosenzweig, M. Svensson, S. Trevaskes, M. Xia, G. Zhiyuan
