Ellner, Robinson and Whetham’s stimulating volume should encourage policy-makers and students to probe the complexity of the right to selective conscientious objection.
Hopgood doesn’t write for novices, nor is his book path-breaking, yet it offers serious, disturbing, food for thought about the concept of Human Rights in transformation.
