Więcej o książce

Focusing on the intersection of human rights and grassroots activism, the book critiques mainstream human rights discourse as complicit with capitalist violence. Drawing from her experiences in Colombian social movements, the author argues against the notion that human rights are inherently linked to capitalism or colonialism. Instead, she highlights how marginalized communities can redefine human rights to challenge oppressive systems and propose alternative political economies. By contextualizing human rights within real struggles, the author emphasizes their transformative potential and encourages a reexamination of prevailing legal and ethical frameworks.
