We are now closed for the Christmas and New Year period, returning on Monday 5th January 2026. Orders placed during this time will be processed upon our return on 5th January.
The current edition of Human Rights in Development is the fourteenth in the series. Over the years the structure of the yearbook has shifted from that of a journal to a thematic anthology. The theme of this year's volume is ""Empowerment, Participation, Accountability and Non-Discrimination: Operationalising a Human Rights-Based Approach to Development"". The Human Rights in Development Yearbook series takes its starting point in a development perspective and aims to be topical, comprehensive and multidisciplinary, exemplifying the ""cross-fertilisation"" of theoretical and practical approaches. Contributions are sought from researchers and practitioners in both recipient and donor countries. To ensure an increased focus on Southern perspectives the editorial group is in a process of enlargement so as to include representatives from recipient countries.;Human Rights in Development is the result of a joint research project born out of longstanding cooperation between the following research institutes and centres for human rights: the Christian Michelsen Institute, Bergen; the Danish Institute for Human Rights, Copenhagen; the Icelandic Human Rights Center, Reykjavik; the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Human Rights, Vienna; the Netherlands Institute of Human Rights, Utrecht; the Norwegian Centre for Human Rights, Oslo; the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law, Lund; and the Abo Akademi University Institute for Human Rights, Turku/Abo.
