Towards Recognition of Minority Groups

’Edited by leading voices in Poland’s academy, this volume consists of an impressive array of contributions on the always-current question of groups’ rights in liberal democracies, encompassing perspectives from both continental and analytical philosophy.’ Ofer Raban, University of Oregon School of Law, USA ’This book offers a comprehensive and critical overview of human rights and the fights for recognition in the sphere of the law. The book fills a gap in the literature of human and minority rights, and is based on concrete legal situations and cases. The work will be of interest to scholars, students and activists concerned with these topics.’ Antal Visegrády, University of Pécs, Hungary 'This text is a representation of all that is good in the continued examination of the complexity of Human Rights. Focusing on the anchor of human rights, the treatment of minority groups, this collection of treatises represents a world-view of a subject often ignored and long debated. The contrast between the philosophical and real world legalities smoothly leads the reader to the implementation and obstacles in the practical application of human rights in a dynamic world society. It has earned immediate incorporation with my program’s curriculum in which I anticipate it to be an invaluable reference in conflict transformation studies.' Jack B. Hamlin, National University, USA
