Description
The mass violence of the twentieth centuryâs two world warsâfollowed more recently by decentralized and privatized warfare, manifested in terrorism, ethnic cleansing, and other localized forms of killingâhas led to a heightened awareness of human beingsâ vulnerability and the precarious nature of the institutions they create to protect themselves from violence and exploitation. This vulnerability, something humans share amid the diversity of cultural beliefs and values that mark their differences, provides solid ground on which to construct a framework of human rights.
Bryan Turner undertakes this task here, developing a sociology of rights from a sociology of the human body. His blending of empirical research with normative analysis constitutes an important step forward for the discipline of sociology. Like anthropology, sociology has traditionally eschewed the study of justice as beyond the limits of a discipline that pays homage to cultural relativism and the âvalue neutralityâ of positivistic science. Turnerâs expanded approach accordingly involves a truly interdisciplinary dialogue with the literature of economics, law, medicine, philosophy, political science, and religion.
