About the Book: Applied Ethics and Human Rights The core concern underlying the various problems in applied ethics is that of human rights. While most writing on human rights deal with its legal, political and socio-economic aspects, this collection instead addresses its philosophical aspect. Furthermore, the book explores the Indian counterpart of the idea of human rights which can be found in the notion of `dharma`. The text addresses issues of conceptual analysis as well as contextual applications of the idea of human rights and its fine nuances. It also contains papers which analyze the concept of `dharma`, raising questions on whether this concept can do `double duty` for the notions of human rights as well as the notion of human duties. The collection offers papers on human rights issues of different categories of people, including ethnic minorities, homosexuals, women, mentally ill people and prisoners. The papers in this volume also afford grounds for comparative study. ISBN - 9789380601359
