Translocal lessons from transitional justice in Colombia: Truth, art, and memory to advance human rights and transform societies
This article highlights the expansion of traditional concepts of transitional justice in Colombia to include an emphasis on human rights and the empowerment of marginalized communities. It describes how grassroots truth processes, collective art projects, and memory work have been essential to a transitional justice experiment that challenges dominant national narratives and power structures. It argues that Colombia's experience may provide lesso…

Which way now?: Tradition, continuity and change in a North Queensland Aboriginal community
This thesis examines the role of tradition in the continuity of Aboriginal society at Lockhart River settlement in Cape York Peninsula, Queensland. Like other remote Aboriginal communities in Australia, Lockhart is the product of an historical process of alien contact, subsequent domination and missionization. Despite deliberate European attempts to change Aboriginal ways, Lockhart people today see themselves as the inheritors of a body of tradit…
Routledge Handbook on Human Rights and the Middle East and North Africa
Recent events such as ‘Iran’s Green Revolution’ and the ‘Arab Uprisings’ have exploded notions that human rights are irrelevant to Middle Eastern and North African politics. Increasingly seen as a global concern, human rights are at the fulcrum of the region’s on-the-ground politics, transnational intellectual debates, and global political intersections. The Routledge Handbook on Human Rights and the Middle East and North Africa: emphasises the n…
Human rights contestations: Sexual orientation and gender identity
This article asks if and why sexual orientation and gender identity-related rights should connect to a human rights framework. To answer that question it begins by addressing how we understand what makes human rights resonate or not resonate and if addressing a contentious issue such as sexual orientation or gender identity from within a human rights frame advances or detracts from such resonance. The argument developed in response is anti-founda…
Legitimizing Human Rights: Beyond Mythical Foundations and Into Everyday Resonances
What is the source of human rights’ resonance and does that legitimize working on human rights transnationally? This article responds both to human rights critics (among them relativists, poststructuralists, and some Queer theorists) and supporters (legal, philosophical, and historical universalists) who assume human rights’ source is in some sort of singular foundation. This is a shared misconception. Human rights’ global resonance does not come…

All kind of nation’: Aborigines and Asians in Cape York Peninsula
Apart from some interaction with Torres Strait Islanders, the Aborigines of Cape York Peninsula, Queensland, were free from overseas contact until European 'discovery' and subsequent settlement occurred in the nineteenth century. Shortly after Europeans arrived, Asians appeared in the Peninsula and its waters, attracted by news of its mineral and marine resources. Their intention, like that of 'Macassan' visitors to other north Australian shores …
The Transnational Muslim World, the Foundations and Origins of Human Rights, and Their Ongoing Intersections
To understand the Muslim world it is essential to see it in a transnational context that is informed by its heterogeneity, power contestations, and continuous change. To understand human rights' foundations and origins it is essential to grapple with its legal, political, normative, and institutional groundings, and bear in mind its ongoing reconfigurations and global impacts. Each of these tasks is illustrated by how movements for the rights of …
