Each issue of the Journal will focus on one contemporary dilemma that raises major moral and legal questions. Each such dilemma will be examined using an interdisciplinary approach to human rights law, an approach which strives to create associations between legal provisions and the philosophical thinking underlying them. Moreover, it is our hope that publishing the work of distinguished scholars from various countries will mitigate the problem of culturally insensitive application of human rights norms. The inaugural volume focuses on the multi-faceted relationships between the right to non-discrimination and the right to preservation of culture. The articles from the inaugural volume, on the subject of Multiculturalism and the Anti-discrimination Principle, are available in the journal's website in full text. The second issue of Law & Ethics of Human Rights (January, 2008) will address the topic of Demography and Human Rights and will examine legal as well as moral concerns arising from the deployment of demographic considerations in the formation of public policy. The third issue (January, 2009) will address the topic of Labor Rights in the Era of Globalization.
