POJS - 6150 Civil and Human Rights (3)


This course examines, from both domestic and international perspectives, civil and human rights within the context of legal and social equality and the broad contexts of culture and justice. It explores issues and policies in economic, ideological, and institutional contexts across cultures, and examines the nature, substance, source and place, and politics of human rights. It also examines the theoretical challenges posed to international human rights policy by arguments of radical cultural relativism and political realism, as well as the challenges and opportunities diversity has provided for women and other minorities. Equivalent to POJS-615.
