Human rights and free trade in Mexicoa discursive and sociopolitical perspective /[electronic resource] :Ariadna Estâevez. - 1st ed. - New York, N.Y. :Palgrave Macmillan,2008. - viii, 263 p.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [229]-250) and index.

Introduction: A Discursive and Sociopolitical Approach to Free Trade and Human Rights -- TheNeoliberal Paradox: Conservative Economic Change and the Rise of Democratic Politics -- The Emergence of Human Rights Discourse in Mexico -- The Exhaustion of Transition to Democracy Discourse: HumanRights Discourse Enters Anti-free Trade Struggles -- Constructing Free Trade Worldviews with HumanRights Discourse -- The Construction of Identities and Specific Agendas with Human Rights Discourse--Articulating Anti-free Trade Struggles with Human Rights Discourse.

This book demonstrates how human rights instruments and values have brought different movements together in the struggle against free tradeunder the banners of state duty and law enforcement with their underlying principles of equality and human dignity. Special emphasis is placed on how subjectivities influence identification with certain values and legal or political strategies. Furthermore, by focusing on the understanding of human rights by social agents the book also shows that specific human rights have more political potential for certain types of subjects in the struggle againstfree trade than others, such as the rightto development, the rights of women and the right to food.This analysis is conducted with a specifically Latin American theorization of human rights that challenges both Eurocentric scholarly works on the issue and the arguments of European activists directedat the allegedly Western authorship of human rights discourses.
