Summary, etc. This book hopes to further contribute to teaching, research, and activist contention about the uncertain futures of human rights in a hyper globalizing world. The issue of politics — the combined and uneven labours of practices of domination and governance and of counter-power — is addressed in this work. Power and resistance have articulated themselves in terms of alternate languages of normative politics in a pre-human rights epoch through various notions such as ‘justice’, ‘righteous’ conduct (both on the part of the rulers and the ruled), moral responsibility to avoid causing harm to others in everyday conduct, the virtues of honour and chivalry (upon which even until this day thrive the genre, texts, and corpus of international law of humanitarian intervention and of warfare), and fidelity to the divine being rendered intelligible only through the pious interpretation of God’s word. This book also further addresses some ways in which politics of production (inter/intra-governmental labours as well as a wide variety of related social practices) bears upon the production of politics. Human rights activism, the politics of identity and difference, relativism, human rights movements, human rights markets, and business ethics are also discussed.<br/>
