• New Technologies and Human Rights

’Collectively, the contributors to this thought-provoking collection probe the idea that the regulatory licence for new technologies should be conditional upon respect for human rights and human dignity; and, individually, they highlight a range of issues, themes, and tensions that underline the breadth and depth of this global challenge.’ Roger Brownsword, King’s College London, UK 'This collection gives priority to Global South perspectives, making it a timely and distinctive addition to the field of new technology and human rights.'
