| Abstract: | Influence is an ambition that all academic journals have. This one is no exception. Its raison d'etre is to urge the relevance, for the study and promotion of human rights, of bringing together the diverse academic projects of furthering the understanding of (a) the situation of human rights in the Mediterranean region, (b) the structure of that situation, and (c) the legal, political and ethical theory of human rights. Understanding the situation calls for studies that report and map the issues arising in the region; understanding the structure calls for studies whose results would aid the promotion of universal rights in the region. Both would contribute to the embedding of a universalist set of rights, criteria and discourse in a particular region of the world. |
