Saul Dubow on "how and why the apartheid government and the ANC both 'discovered human rights in the mid-1980s ... by exploring several rights 'regimes' over two centuries: African nationalist, liberal and republican. Although fragmented and episodic, these traditions help explain why rights discourse and constitutionalism gained ground in the last decade of the twentieth century, and momentarily aligned South Africa with broader global trends." from the back cover
