Title: Human Rights and Social Justice in a Global Perspective
Authors: C. Mapp, Susan
Keywords: Social service—International cooperation
Issue Date: 2008
Publisher: Oxford
Description: The textbook will help introduce those in the Global North to social problems as they occur in the Global South. There are both similarities and differences to how these issues have developed in different regions of the world due to issues of culture and access to resources. Each of these issues is a violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The human rights documents developed by the United Nations provide a lens through which these issues will be viewed. Woven throughout each chapter are descriptions and case studies from multiple countries in the Global South to help illustrate their impact. At the end of each chapter is a ‘‘Culture Box’’ in which the issue is described in detail in one specific country so that the reader can understand the impact of culture on the development of a particular issue.
