The abstract of the original article (Society 56 (2019): 203-209) is as follows:
We argue here that human rights are as much the problem as they are the solution to the contemporary challenge of constructing civil society, observing that the seemingly inherent long-term social and political consequences of close to half a century of advocating human rights to the exclusion of other components of human good and fulfillment have been at the expense of any sense of shared belonging. Delineating between rights and belonging, we show how the extreme right has latched on to a tangible argument for belonging while the left has responded by continuing to advocate for abstract, universal, and unencumbered human rights to the detriment of its efforts to build civil society.
Following the article, the translator provides a commentary, first explaining the pedagogy of CEDAR (Communities Engaging with Difference and Religion), an educational program organized by the writers, which helps people from disparate communities learn to accept their differences as they work toward a civil society. The translator then discusses the social movements concerning sexuality in Africa and Japan, where human rights discourse seems to be conflicting with their local philosophies of communal values and social harmony. It is argued that the writers’ idea of reconsidering the human rights framework and addressing our needs for belonging can help us negotiate these complex issues of sexuality, family, personhood, and human relations.
