This edited book adopts a prescriptive and culturally relative narrative to understand and critique human rights within Asia. Simultaneously, it aims to understand how human rights, especially, such as women's rights, are practised and protected by Asian nations. The book evaluates the realisation of Eurocentric human rights by Asian states in line with their domestic needs and priorities. It delineates the alien nature of western standards of human rights for Asia. Contributors focus on varied geographical contexts including South Asia, China, and Vietnam. The chapters also cover the protection of women's rights in conflict zones in Myanmar, Kashmir and Afghanistan, as well as regional human rights mechanisms. Covering a diverse region, this book will be of interest to researchers and students of international human rights, feminism and gender studies, particularly in the Asian context.
