The social work profession promotes social changes, problem solving in human relationships and the empowerment and liberation of people to enhance well-being.  Utilising theories of human behaviour ad social systems, social work intervenes at the points where people interact with their environments.  Principles of human rights and social justice are fundamental to social work.

The aim of this book is to provide the reader with some entry points into the worlds of human rights thinking, activism, and law.  This book concentrates on the power of ideas to mobilize people against injustice and indignities.  Human rights do not really resolve the tension between competing interests and various visions of how the world should be; rather, human rights ideas provide the vocabulary for arguing about which interests should prevail and how best to achieve the ends we have chosen

“This book will be of great interest to law students, legal professional as well as the common man.”
