The Nordic Journal of Human Rights is a leading academic journal for human rights research. The Journal takes a broad, multi-disciplinary and pluralistic approach to human rights as a legal, political and social practice. We publish high quality scholarship analysing the past, present or future of human rights from a variety of theoretical and methodological viewpoints. We welcome original, innovative and reflective contributions that advance knowledge about human rights from the perspectives of law, political science, history, anthropology, philosophy, sociology and any other academic discipline with an interest in human rights. Geographically, the Journal takes a global perspective, welcoming submissions on human rights in the Nordic region and beyond. We also publish notes on current legal developments, as well as book reviews and book essays
