Human Rights Governance

Governance is the process whereby public institutions conduct public affairs, manager public resources and guarantee the realization of human rights. Good governance accomplishes this in a manner essentially free of abuse and corruption, and with due regard for the rule of law. The true test of good governance is the degree to which it delivers on the promise of human rights: civil, cultural, economic, political and social rights. This book focuses on the status of human rights in the contemporary world and the importance of human rights governance. This book will be highly informative and useful to academicians, researchers, policy makers, students, human rights activists, and all the concerned.
