(Human Rights Core Course) This seminar introduces students to questions about human rights
abuses and human rights advocacy in the Middle East, within a global
comparative historical framework. As such, the course is divided into three
parts. First, we will explore the changing relationship of the international
human rights regime to national and regional governing structures as well as
social movements and advocacy groups. Second, we will survey a common set of
human rights abuses to understand their similar and differential
manifestation in relation to historical, regional, and other contexts.
Finally, we will familiarize ourselves with key examples of campaigns and
other struggles that frame(d) themselves as human rights advocacy. In
pursuing these parts of the course, we will read, listen, and watch
theoretical and case-specific resources on self-determination, women’s
equality, labor justice, migrant rights, and LGBTQ justice. D+J: As a course
dealing with human rights in the Middle East, this seminar will be
particularly attentive to how difference (e.g., language, race, sex, gender,
sexuality, and nationality) informs systematic human rights abuses, and how
communities defined by difference through one or more of these categories
have mobilized to challenge such abuses. |
