CJ 230 - International Human Rights
We explore the meaning of the term “human rights” and whether they are universal or relative; the ethical and philosophical sources for human rights; the international human rights regime, including the treaties and customary law that is its legal basis, and the courts and tribunals that have been established to enforce it. The course concludes with an examination of specific case studies, such as the “dirty” wars in Latin America and the struggle against Apartheid.
