But in today's deeply divided world, some argue that cultural differences and economic inequality undermine their universality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eHuman Rights in a Divided World\u003c\/i\u003e, David Hollenbach offers a comprehensive and cohesive analysis of the challenges to human rights, suggesting that today's global realities call for important developments rooted in Catholic ethics. This work of theological social ethics draws on a range of disciplines to address the question of whether or not human rights remain valid as universal standards for action in a multicultural, religiously pluralistic, and economically unequal world. Hollenbach provides a compelling account of the contribution that Catholic ethics and practice make to an unequal world. He applies the proposed understanding of human rights to several issues that are much debated today, including religious freedom, the rights of refugees and other forced migrants, economic rights in the face of significant inequality, and the rights of women.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eHuman Rights in a Divided World\u003c\/i\u003e offers a clear path forward for the church in its engagement with politics and guidance for students of human rights as well as those working to advance them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDavid Hollenbach, SJ\u003c\/b\u003e, is the Pedro Arrupe Distinguished Research Professor at the Walsh School of Foreign Service, a senior fellow of the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs, and an affiliated professor in the Department of Theology and Religious Studies at Georgetown University.
