About

Draft paper to be delivered to the Aristotelian Society on 4 March 2013: "Why is It Disrespectful to Violate Rights?" by Rowan Cruft (Stirling). Rowan has taught philosophy at the University of Stirling since 2002. He has published articles on the nature and justification of rights and duties, focusing on comparisons between different forms of right: human rights, contractual rights, property rights, legal rights. He is co-editor of Crime, Punishment and Responsibility: the jurisprudence of Antony Duff (OUP 2011), and is currently co-editing OUP's Philosophical Foundations of Human Rights (forthcoming 2014). The final version of this draft paper will be published in Issue No. 2 of the 2013 Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society, Volume CXIII. Please visit our website for further information.
