Domesticating Human Rightsa reappraisal of their cultural-political critiques and their imperialistic use /[electronic resource] :by Fidele Ingiyimbere. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2017. - xi, 315 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Philosophy and politics - critical explorations,v.42352-8370 ;. - Philosophy and politics - critical explorations ;v.4..

Chapter 1 Introduction -- Chapter 2 Human Rights as an Imperialist Ideology -- Chapter 3 Humanitarian Intervention as Neocolonialism -- Chapter 4 Rawls and the Challenges to Human Rights -- Chapter 5 Habermas and the Challenges to Human Rights -- Chapter 6 Conceiving Human Rights from Local Practices -- Chapter 7 Conclusion: Revisiting Old Questions.

This book develops a philosophical conception of human rights that responds satisfactorily to the challenges raised by cultural and political critics of human rights, who contend that the contemporary human rights movement is promoting an imperialist ideology, and that the humanitarian intervention for protecting human rights is a neo-colonialism. These claims affect the normativity and effectiveness of human rights; that is why they have to be taken seriously. At the same time, the same philosophical account dismisses the imperialist crusaders who support the imperialistic use of human rights by the West to advance liberal culture. Thus, after elaborating and exposing these criticisms, the book confronts them to the human rights theories of John Rawls and Jurgen Habermas, in order to see whether they can be addressed. Unfortunately, they are not. Therefore, having shown that these two philosophical accounts of human rights do not respond convincingly to those the postcolonial challenges, the book provides an alternative conception that draws the understanding of human rights from local practices. It is a multilayer conception which is not centered on state, but rather integrates it in a larger web of actors involved in shaping the practice and meaning of human rights. Confronted to the challenges, this new conception offers a promising way for addressing them satisfactorily, and it even sheds new light to the classical questions of universality of human rights, as well as the tension between universalism and relativism.
