Abstract

Sir Stephen Sedley, former Judge of the Court of Appeal of England and Wales, considers the nature of human rights in this article, which is based on the text of the annual Ruth Adler Memorial Lecture delivered at Edinburgh University Law School in 2015. Sir Stephen undertakes a comparative study of the concept of human rights, one which takes in discussion of human rights culture in the non-Western world as well as the proposal for a British “bill of rights” to replace the European Convention on Human Rights.
