The book delves into the debates surrounding human rights from globalist versus anti-globalist views, unilateralist versus multilateralist approaches, and market ideology versus religious fundamentalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the key aims of this work is to challenge the commonly held belief that human rights originated solely in modern Western Europe. The book uncovers evidence of human rights practices in ancient civilizations, including the Hammurabi Code from Babylonia (1700 BCE) and ancient Indian texts, which emphasize human rights for the common people thousands of years ago. In doing so, it reveals the long-standing evolution of human rights across different cultures and regions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book also examines significant global efforts such as the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals (2000) and the Sustainable Development Goals (2015), which aim to protect human rights for all individuals worldwide. It addresses pressing issues such as child labour, dalit exclusion, terrorism, and governance, offering in-depth analysis of how these issues intersect with human rights in the modern world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStructured into multiple parts, the book’s chapters cover topics like the global historical perspective on the evolution of human rights, dynamics of human rights in India, and critical analyses of child labour and exclusion of Dalits. It also explores governance and corruption within the context of human rights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis volume is expected to inspire thoughtful reflection among scholars, academics, and the general public, contributing to the ongoing conversation around the protection and promotion of human rights globally, nationally, and locally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart I – Human Rights: Evolution, Perspectives and Context\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvolution of Human Rights: A Global Historical Perspective\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerspectives on Human Rights\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDynamics of Human Rights in India\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart II – Human Rights and Child Labour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConceptual and Legal Aspects of Child Labour: A Critical Appraisal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrends, Causes and Consequences of Child Labour in India\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDynamics of Child Labour in India: Problems and Prospects\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDomestic Child Labour: Myth and Reality\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart III – Human Rights and Exclusion of Dalits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInclusion of Dalits: Towards ‘Development with Identity’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart IV – Human Rights and Terrorism\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNetworks, Roots and Eradication of Terrorism\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart V – Human Rights and Governance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGovernance and Ethics in India\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCorruption: Causes, Consequences and Eradication\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSubhash Sharma is a distinguished officer in the Indian Administrative Service (IAS), having held key positions in both the Government of India and the Government of Bihar.
