This is a profound topic with a rich history that is highly relevant within global politics and society today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe arguments in this book are formed by bringing William Talbott's \u003ci\u003eWhich Rights Should Be Universal? \u003c\/i\u003e(2005) and Abdulaziz Sachedina's\u003ci\u003e Islam and the Challenge of Human Rights\u003c\/i\u003e (2014) into conversation. By bridging the gap between cultural relativists and moral universalists, this book seeks to offer a new model for the understanding of human rights. It contends that human rights abuses are outcomes of complex systems by design and\/or by default. Therefore, it proposes that a rigorous systems-thinking approach will contribute to addressing the challenge of human rights. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEngaging with Islamic and Western, historical and contemporary, and relativist and universalist thought, this book is a fresh take on a perennially important issue. As such, it will be a first-rate resource for any scholars working in religious studies, Islamic studies, Middle East studies, ethics, sociology, and law and religion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAhmed E.
