Did the history of human rights begin decades, centuries or even millennia ago? What constitutes this history? And what can we really learn from 'the textbook narrative' - the unilinear, forward-looking tale of progress and inevitable triumph authored primarily by Western philosophers, politicians and activists? Does such a distinguishable entity as 'the history of human rights' even exist, or are efforts to read evidence in past events of the later 'evolution' of human rights mere ideology? This book explores these questions through a collective effort by scholars of history, law, theology and anthropology. Rather than entities with an absolute, predefined 'essence', this book conceptualizes human rights as open-ended and ambiguous. It taps into recent 'revisionist' debates and asks: what do we really know of the history of human rights?

Since World War II, human rights have engaged people around the world like perhaps no other discourse. In Finland their embrace represents a shift from ideological homogeneity to pluralism and openness. Human rights education is understood to hold a key role in empowering individuals to become free and equal members of their societies. Yet little empirical scholarship exists evaluating how this goal is met in reality. By combining anthropological approaches with critical legal theory, this study explores the conceptions of knowledge, expertise and learning embedded in the educational activities of a particular network of Scandinavian and Nordic human rights experts. It explores how the ideals of emancipation and equality of the abstract discourse are realized in action.

Koronapandemian myötä tuntematon ja epävarma vyöryivät elämäämme. Tuttu arki katkesi, ja tuntui, että kaikki on poikkeuksellista. Käynti lähikaupassakin oli yhtäkkiä vaarallista.Korona on ollut pakkopysähdys, mutta poikkeusjaksona se on tarjonnut myös peilin sille, mitä pidämme elämässämme normaalina. Mitä korona-aika kertoo meille itsestämme, maailmasta tai käsityksistämme hyvästä, mielekkäästä elämästä? Voiko arki joskus jatkua kuin mitään ei olisi tapahtunut? Onko sen syytäkään jatkua kuin mitään ei olisi tapahtunut?Antropologi Miia Halme-Tuomisaaren Kaikki kotona on tarkkanäköisen tutkijan, havainnoijan ja kanssakokijan teos elämästämme maailmassa, jota korona järisytti.Miia Halme-Tuomisaari on Lundin yliopiston ihmisoikeustutkimuksen lehtori sekä sosiaali- ja kulttuuriantropologian ja kansainvälisen oikeuden dosentti.
