Journal of Human Rights

Journal of Human Rights JHR is a peer-reviewed journal, published quarterly; it serves as an interdisciplinary arena for the discussion and scholarly analysis of human rights.

The Journal of Human Rights seeks to broaden the study of human rights by fostering the critical re-examination of existing approaches to human rights, as well as developing new perspectives on the theory and practice of human rights. The journal aims to meet a globally growing interest in the study and practice of human rights by serving as an arena for the public discussion and scholarly analysi

s of human rights, broadly conceived. Because the Journal is committed to theoretical and ideological diversity in the study of human rights, the editor welcomes papers from scholars and disciplines traditionally associated with the study of human rights as well as papers from those in other disciplines or fields of inquiry which have traditionally been under-represented in the field. We also welcome ideas for special issues, symposia, and reviews from scholars and practitioners of human rights.
