Beskrivning

The Rights Track: Sound Evidence on Human Rights and Modern Slavery uses rich content from The Rights Track podcast [www.rightstrack.org] in an innovative book that enhances and enriches our understanding of the human rights challenges facing the world today. This book showcases the important role of evidence in tackling those challenges and explores the medium of podcasting as a tool for discussing how research evidence is used to protect and promote human rights. From counting torture victims to the joy of human rights, from modern slavery to gay rights, refugees to the radical right, the authors draw new insights and intelligence from conversations between podcast host Landman and an array of experts and advocates who are leaders in their field. Through close analysis of the voices and commentary of podcast guests from six series of the podcast, the authors illustrate the enduring importance of human rights and the need to keep talking about them.

Recensioner i media

“The Right Track podcast series brought research and scholarship on human rights and modern slavery to wide audiences. This book tells the story behind the series – a fascinating insight which powerfully demonstrates the value of technology in making knowledge accessible. But it also provides a collation and analysis of the rich material from the series and provokes thought, challenges mindsets and ultimately has the potential to transform lives.” – Dame Sara Thornton Independent Ant-Slavery Commissioner.
