Description
In this volume from the prestigious Hersch Lauterpacht Memorial Lectures series, Susan Marks offers a profound reconsideration of dignity as a foundational concept in international law and human rights discourse. Drawing on the historical figure of Trucanini and her symbolic stare, Marks interrogates how dignity is theorized and practiced within legal institutions.
The work bridges the gap between abstract legal theory and real-world application, exploring how dignity functions as both a principle and a practice. Marks challenges readers to rethink conventional approaches to human rights protection and dignity protection in contemporary legal systems. This scholarly examination provides critical insights into the limitations and possibilities of dignity-based frameworks in addressing global justice issues.
