Abstract
Baxi examines the paradox by which institutions tasked with protecting rights may simultaneously produce conditions of rightlessness. The essay reflects on governance, legality, and exclusion, emphasizing structural processes that undermine human rights despite formal commitments. Published by Routledge.
