This is the paperback version of the book, which the author describes as a sequel to The Future of Human Rights. It is an analysis of the state of human rights in a 'post human' and 'machinistic' world facing unprecedented security concerns, 'terrorist threats', and technoscience. It goes on to examine how the 'emancipatory potential' of human rights may be carried forward in theoretical work and through activism.
