She found herself not, as planned, backing up Operation Chariot as a troop ship, but fighting alone in the icy, fogbound seas.

This collection of essays aims to remedy the neglect of social needs and rights in human rights theory and practice by exploring the social dimensions of the human-rights minimum.
