Thirty-six papers, covering a wide range of human rights and international law issues, are presented as a tribute to Eide, a former director of the Norwegian Institute for Human Rights and member of the United Nations Sub-commission on Prevention of Discrimination and Protection of Minorities. They are organized into sections that broadly address international criminal law; economic, social, and cultural rights; minority and related rights; and other human rights issues. The papers largely approach their topics from the perspective of the development of international law and primarily address theoretical questions, although a number of more concrete topics are included. Examples of topics discussed include the developing principle of universal jurisdiction, the impact of human rights conventions on the ad hoc international criminal tribunals, the right to food in armed conflict, the definition of cultural rights, the relationship between citizenship and human rights, and human rights for children.
