Volume IV, 2021

Edited by Pietro de Perini and Paolo De Stefani
This book collects six state-of-the-art analyses prepared by students enrolled in two human rights doctoral programmes. In most of the domains explored in this volume, a comprehensive human rights theory or a human rights lens, is not yet available. The challenge that researchers had to undertake was therefore dual: to seek in the academic literature what theoretical conceptualisations have been developed to investigate a given problem, but also – and maybe more significantly – to select, shape and pre-comprehend social and political dynamics so as to make a human rights scholarly inquiry meaningful and productive.
