Emerging Human Rights Issues in Taiwan (Routledge Studies in Contextual and Intercultural Perspectives on Human Rights)

This book examines emerging human rights issues in Taiwan.

It comprehensively covers topics such as the #MeToo movement, the protection of health data, artificial intelligence, parental discipline, and the trans-species politics of gendered human rights and humanized animal welfare. Authored by both well-established scholars and emerging researchers, the book fills a critical gap in the English-language literature on human rights developments in Taiwan.

This book will be of key interest to scholars, students, and practitioners in human rights law, East Asian studies, business and human rights, digital ethics, corporate responsibility, gender studies, the welfare stage and more broadly to political science, sociology, and global studies.
