Discover the crucial link between state sovereignty and human rights protection. This study argues that state failure is a primary driver of human rights abuses, asserting that even strong authoritarian regimes can be more rights-protective than weak ones. Featuring analysis of the Indian state of Bihar alongside other key cases, this book delves into how state weakness erodes accountability and justice. It’s essential reading for students and scholars of political science, international relations, and human rights law in India and globally, offering vital insights into state effectiveness and human rights outcomes.
