What is the place of human rights law within global governance? How can we safeguard human rights in various sites of global governance? What is the role of the state, non-state actors, and global governance institutions in all this? Global Rights? Human Rights in Complex Governance interrogates how human rights and global governance interact with various sub-fields of international and transnational regulation to answer these foundational questions.

The volume offers a detailed exploration of the role of human rights in global governance contexts, such as the sovereign debt regime, global value chains, development assistance, international food governance, and the laws of war. Through an in-depth study of several global governance regimes based on diverse theoretical and methodological approaches, this volume challenges the mainstream discourse on the evolution of human rights law and its limits. As a result, issue areas that are rarely in conversation with each other—such as the World Bank's practices and the law on the use of force—are examined through a common analytical framework that is both rich and flexible enough to shed new light on individual areas of concern and simultaneously reflect on cross-cutting themes.

Bringing human rights experts together with leading scholars in the law of international organizations, public finance, corporations, and use of force, Global Rights? thus serves as a contemporary reflection and set of arguments on how to study and productively think about human rights in complex governance settings.
