The second volume of the series ‘Key Concepts in Interreligious Discourses’ points out the roots of the concept of ”human rights” in Judaism, Christianity and Islam. It shows how far the universal validity of ”human rights” opposes in some crucial points with religious traditions. The volume demonstrates that new perspectives are introduced to the general discussion about human rights when related to religious traditions. Especially the interreligious viewpoint proves that a new kind of debate about human rights and its history is necessary.
