Abstract or Description

In this paper Dr. Kiran Grewal reflects on fundamental challenges facing human rights practice and offers suggestions on rethinking
the approach. Dr. Grewal argues that social scientific methods and concepts used in human rights research are currently limited to instrumental adoption of tools. However there are more profound and useful ways in which human rights advocates can engage with the social sciences to improve praxis.
