Cross-listed: Human Rights (core course)  An introduction to debates about freedom of expression. What is 'freedom of speech'? Is there a right to say anything? Why? We will investigate who has had this right, where it has come from, and what it has had to do in particular with literature. and the arts. What powers does speech have, who has the power to speak, and for what? Debates about censorship, hate speech, the First Amendment and Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights will be obvious starting points, but we will also explore some less obvious questions: about faith and the secular, confession and torture, surveillance, the emergence of political agency. In asking about the status of the speaking human subject, we will look at the ways in which the subject of rights, and indeed the thought of human rights itself, derives from a 'literary' experience. These questions will be examined, if not answered, across a variety of literary, philosophical, legal and political texts, with a heavy dose of case studies (many of them happening right now) and readings in contemporary critical and legal theory.  Class size: 22

Cross-listed: Gender & Sexuality Studies  (Human Rights core course) This course offers students an in-depth survey of historical and contemporary struggles for LGBT rights, from the right to association and repeal of anti-sodomy statutes, to privacy rights, equal protection, and military service, from employment discrimination, same sex marriage, and adoption rights, to  transgender rights around restroom access and incarceration. While the course focuses on LGBT rights in the U.S., we also consider broader contexts in American history, globalization and international human rights law. Topics in the first part of the course include 1) a brief introduction to homophobia and anti-gay legislation; 2) Pioneering early homosexual emancipation movements in Germany before the rise of National Socialism and 3) Pre-Stonewall “homophile movements” in the United States in the context of 1950s anti-communist hysteria. In the second part of the course, topics include: 1) The Stonewall Riots (1969) and development of a national gay rights movement in tandem with the Civil and Women's Rights movements of the 1960s; 2) Conservative anti-gay backlash and “moral panic” surrounding the anti-gay campaigns of the 1970s; and 3) The AIDS crisis and radical queer activism during the “culture wars” of the 1980s. In the third part of the course, we explore how the political struggle for gay rights has played out in elections, in the U.S. congress, and in the courts, including 1) Decriminalizing homosexuality from Bowers v. Hardwick (1986) to Lawrence v. Texas (2003);  2) Allowing gays to serve openly in the military, from “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” (1994) to the Murphy Amendment (2010); 3) Legalizing same-sex marriage, from DOMA (1996) to Obergefell v. Hodges (2015); and 4) Transgender access to public restrooms, from Cruzan v. Special School District (2002) to North Carolina’s  HB2 (2016). Students will become familiar with major U.S. advocates for LGBT rights, such as the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force, the Human Rights Campaign Fund, and the Lambda Legal Defense Fund, as well as with important global developments concerning LGBT rights in the arena of International human rights law, such as the Yogyakarta Principles (2007).

Cross-listed: Global & International Studies; Human Rights (core course)  When should states use military force to alleviate human suffering?  Does the need to intervene to stop human rights violations outweigh the right of states to maintain control over territory?  The international states system is built upon the principles of sovereignty and nonintervention.  Yet over the past two decades human rights have emerged as an increasingly accepted justification legitimizing the use of force.  This apparent tension between the respect for state sovereignty and the inevitable violations that result from the use of military force for humanitarian purposes is at the center of the debate over human rights in the field of international relations.  This course explores the dilemmas and controversies surrounding the use of force for humanitarian purposes.  The first part examines the major ethical, political and strategic arguments for and against humanitarian military intervention.  The second part focuses on specific instances where states undertook, or failed to undertake, a humanitarian military intervention (for example, Bosnia, Somalia, Rwanda, Kosovo, Sudan, Libya and Syria, among others).  Through an examination of particular case studies, we will better understand why the international community has such an inconsistent record of stopping humanitarian crises and what the limitations and possibilities of human rights are in international politics.   Class size: 18

DIFF

Cross-listed: Global & International Studies; Human Rights  (core course) This course approaches a set of practical and ethical human rights issues through the study of historical and contemporary rights campaigns: the British anti-slavery movement of the 18th and 19th centuries (and later campaigns against slavery and slave-like practices); the negotiations for the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in the aftermath of World War II; the campaign to ban anti-personnel landmines in the 1990s; and the ongoing campaign against Female Genital Cutting. The emphasis is on questions of strategy and organization and how these relate to wider ethical and philosophical issues. What were the challenges that campaigners faced? How did they resolve them? What alliances of interest did they confront? And what coalitions did they form to combat them? The course also considers the questions that emerge from consideration of these campaigns: how have human rights campaigners have engaged with—and been part of—wider political, religious and economic changes? Have the successes of the human rights movement—particularly the expansion of international human rights legislation—changed its character? When, if ever, are indigenous values more important than universal principles? What is the relation of human rights to religious values? Is human rights itself a quasi-religious belief system? Or just a political language? Finally the course considers the question of animal rights and the challenges this poses for the concept of rights and the extent of proper moral concern.

HUM

(Human Rights core course) At least since Aristotle, philosophers have sought to delineate the contours of the human, to define what it means to be a specifically human being. To define what it means to be human is at once to exclude those modes of being deemed not human—a process of exclusion that produces various categories of otherness as non-human, or even inhuman. In this course, students engage with a range of theoretical discussions that attempt to situate the human being vis-à-vis its “other,” traditionally as a kind of intermediary being, poised uncomfortably between animality, on the one hand, and divinity, on the other. Readings may include: Greco Roman & Judeo-Christian conceptions of the human (Aristotle, Paul, Augustine Luther); 17th-and 18th-century theories of “human nature” (e.g., Hobbes, Larochefoucauld, Mandeville, LaMettrie, Condillac, Rousseau, Herder, Kant, Schiller); 19th century Social Darwinism (Spencer) and Philosophy (Marx, Nietzsche); contemporary socio-biology (Wilson, et. Al.); Philosophical Anthropology (Teilhard, Bergson, Bataille, Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty, Scheler, Uexküll, Plessner, Gehlen) and Post-structuralism (Deleuze, Derrida, Foucault). Class size: 20

Cross-listed: Human Rights (core course); Philosophy; Political Studies  This course will provide an introduction to constitutional theory and practice in comparative context.   The first part of the semester looks at the history of the idea of constitutionalism in Ancient Greece, 18th century England,  France, and the United States. The remainder of the semester will be devoted to a critical examination of the contemporary workings of constitutional law, focusing primarily on decisions of the highest courts of United States, India and South Africa relating to critical human rights issues.  The course confronts core questions of the role of a constitution in the state and the particular challenges of a written constitution enforced by courts.  By looking at constitutional enforcement comparatively, the course offers the opportunity to test theoretical assumptions and get beyond the US-centered approach that has dominated constitutional study for a variety of reasons (not least of which, the fact that the US has the longest and best established tradition of constitutional enforcement.) In addition to theoretical and historical readings, the course will include substantial case law readings.  Students will also have the opportunity in their research to explore constitutional systems beyond South Africa, India and the United States. Beyond legal cases, readings include Aristotle, Montesquieu, Bodin, Arendt, and the Federalist Papers. Class size: 40

(Human Rights core course) Half a million people, most of them civilians, have died in Syria’s civil war, and hundreds more die every week. Does the United States, far and away the world’s most powerful nation, have a responsibility to stop the killing? Virtually every week the United States acts to assassinate people in Pakistan or Yemen or Somalia using unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones. Does the world’s strongest country have any responsibility to justify these extra-judicial killings? Today scores of prisoners sit imprisoned in Guantanamo, having never been charged with a crime. Does the United States have the right to hold them? Our country is at once the leading force for the present human rights treaty regime that binds the world’s nations and its most prominent and persistent violator. How did the United States’ strikingly peculiar relationship to human rights come about and what does it tell us, not only about the United States but about the character of power itself? In this course we will study the history of American power and its evolving relationship to human rights, both in treaties and in practice, and will attempt to untangle and illuminate the paradoxes that lie at its heart.

2 credits  On January 20, Donald Trump will become the President of the United States. His election is unprecedented as he is the first president with no prior experience in government, the military, or public service. Trump’s election has drawn comparisons with past populist demagogic leaders. His rise coincides with the resurgence of authoritarian and nationalist leaders across the globe, particularly in Europe and Eurasia. In this course we will read texts on and about the history of conservative, populist, authoritarian, fascist, and demagogic leaders in the U.S. and elsewhere. The aim is to understand the historical and present context in which a leader like Trump emerges within and through democratic means.  At the same time, as we pursue our historical and comparative inquiries, we will be reading and talking about the first months of the Trump Presidency. Students will keep a weekly blog reflecting on current events in light of the readings and class discussions. There will be no assignments outside the weekly blog entries. Numerous Bard Faculty will teach segments of this course or give guest lectures.  The course will be graded pass/fail. Reading, participation, and completing the blog entries are essential to pass the course. There will be opportunities associated with the Center for Civic Engagement, the Hannah Arendt Center, and the Human Rights Project to pursue supplemental tutorials and independent studies for an additional two credits. Interested students can submit multimedia pieces to the 100 Days Initiative, a public media project dedicated to understanding executive, legislative and judicial processes during Trump’s first 100 days.

Cross-listed: Global & International Studies In Western countries, child deaths are very rare except in cases of severe congenital abnormality, premature birth, or accident.  But in Africa, Asia and Latin America millions of children under five die annually, the vast majority from causes that cost pennies to prevent or cure. This course will describe efforts past and present by governments, health agencies and foundations to prevent child deaths around the world, and explore why some efforts have been more successful than others. The importance of prevailing social attitudes towards children and women, as well as the political and economic imperatives that drive government action, will be emphasized. The course is designed to help students develop skills in research and policy advocacy, and to become familiar with the historical, medical and social science literature on child survival and the workings of national and international agencies.  Much of the course will be framed as a series of debates and research questions concerning theoretical and practical issues that have life and death consequences for children in the developing world today.

The fragility of the boundary between persons and things is a recurring structure in the history of human rights. How do persons become things, and vice versa? How can things have rights, and how do they claim and exercise them? Topics include the legal definition of “person,” gender and personhood, "illegal"/undocumented aliens, structures of personification, slavery, reification, poetry and sculpture, personhood as property, social media and new forms of subjectivity, and the Pygmalion complex. Texts by Ovid, Locke, Dennis Cooper, Hawthorne, Heidegger, Lacan, Baudelaire, Plath, Harriet Jacobs, and Barbara Johnson, as well as films, videos, and websites.

2-credits Military commentators and policymakers claim that the proliferation of drone technology could alter the character of war forever; on the home front, some are describing a $80 billion industry that will create tens of thousands of jobs and result in untold efficiencies. But how much of this is true and how much is science fiction? Peering into a future in which autonomous weapons systems target and kill without human intervention and drone highways criss-cross the American skies, this seminar will equip students with the knowledge and analytic skills to judge whether we are indeed on the edge of one or more “drone revolutions.” The readings are comprised mostly of source documents — military and government reports, human rights investigations, technical data, legal briefs, and policy documents and speeches — through which students can develop a theoretical and practical framework for understanding how drones operate in both civilian and military spheres, and identify and analyze the ways in which drones will impact the world, and the ways in which they won’t. This class is organized by Bard's Center for the Study of the Drone and will be taught in conjunction with a parallel seminar at the U.S. Naval War College.  Class size: 15

Cross-listed: Literature  What can culture and the arts teach us about evidence? Evidence would seem to be a matter of facts, far from the realm of literary or artistic invention. But, whether as fact or fiction, we are regularly confronted by all sorts of signs, and we need to learn how to read the traces of things left behind at this or that scene, of a crime for instance. Matters of interpretation, presentation, even rhetoric, arise immediately. Evidence, at a minimum, is presented for our deliberation and calls for us to make decisions, form conclusions, or reach judgments. Hence its legal meanings. On the basis of the traces of what is no longer present—whether in the form of statistics, stains, rubble, graves, documents, images, or testimony—we have to decide, and risk making claims about the truth of, what happened. This holds even or especially when the evidence seems least equivocal, as in the case of forensics.  And if often what we see and read seems to compel action, at other times it appears to immobilize us: what is it to ignore evidence? This seminar will explore the theory and practice of evidence, with many case studies and special attention paid to the different forms evidence can take and the disputes to which it can give rise, especially when violations of, and claims for, human rights are at stake.  Readings from L. Weschler, K. Doyle,

The course starts with two questions. Can human rights avoid becoming simply one more ideological form, and a dangerous one at that, given its reliance on self-confidently mythic images of suffering and rescue, not to mention the grand figure of Man that looms over everything else? And how can photography help find a way out, given that mediation and representation have always been central to the human rights enterprise? Starting with influential historical accounts by Lynn Hunt and others, we will explore the ways in which visual appeals have played a defining role in the establishment of human rights, both as consciousness and as constitutional and international law. Human rights today is unthinkable apart from photography. And along the way, both have come in for a lot of criticism. This creates a conundrum of representation at the heart of both. For without photography -- which is to say, the vector by which NGOs generate knowledge, evidence, and funding, based on a sense of empathy and urgency -- there would probably be fewer human rights and no humanitarian movement.  Class size: 15

Why, at crucial moments in people’s lives, in the face of disturbance/injustice/pain does one person pick the road of maximum engagement and another picks a different, perhaps easier road? What drives human motivation?  What is collective responsibility?  Where does existential pain come from?  Is there a self apart from the social?  There are, of course, multiple forms of action, not all of them entirely visible, and we will discuss these.  There is a wide spectrum along the path of being and action.  Who are you on this spectrum?  What made you?  What drives you toward social action? How is this determined by the family you grew up in? Your culture?  If this sounds personal, it’s because it is meant to be!  This is a course about thinking and reflecting.  What does social action mean to you, and why are you involved?   We will examine many ways of looking at what makes human beings and culture: including the political, the psychological, the economic, the biological.  I am not selling one right path; I am raising questions and opening avenues of thought.  Consider this the beginning of a lifetime of insight gathering.  We are going to encounter multiple, even opposing viewpoints on what makes a human, what creates character and drive and compassion.  I only want you to be open to considering and weighing and wrestling with the often complex and contradictory ways of looking at human experience.  Please note that this is not a survey class on social movements or particular organizations.   We will not, for example be studying the history of Doctors Without Borders, the way they organize or the way they deal with hierarchy. That is a different kind of class, one that certainly could be extremely useful, but one that falls into the category of History or Organizational Development.  In this class we will be exploring the seeds and roots of human behavior – especially as that behavior manifests in social formation and socialized behaviors.  We will dig into human development, psychology, sociology, philosophy and literature that traces its roots back to the basics of human activity and motivation. In other words, this course is about what makes us tick. Bard has recently joined Mid-Hudson Refugee Solidarity Alliance.  Starting in January 2017 the Alliance will be sponsoring refugee families from Syria.  The class, as a class, will participate in supporting these refugee families.  This will take many forms: advocacy, childcare, ESL training, etc.  This real world work will give us an ongoing framework for evaluating theory.

Cross-listed: Middle Eastern Studies  The year 2015 marked the highest refugee population ever registered: 60 million people, according to the UN's High Commissioner for Refugees. The refugees able to return to their countries are always fewer than those who leave. The oldest refugee population, the Palestinians, today numbers more than five million, 1.6 million of whom still live in some sixty camps across the Middle East. As conditions of refugeeness become now prevalent world wide, it has become imperative to consider refugee-camps as complex urban structures -- neither cities nor temporary encampments, perhaps the coming condition of urbanism at large. How can we make sense of this reality when we lack the essential conceptual vocabulary to grasp it? What can we learn from almost 70 years of Palestinian displacement? This seminar will try to make sense of this new urban reality, its architecture, institutional structures, and the everyday transformative political practices. The seminar regards Palestinian refugee camps in the West Bank as a principal site of investigation for understanding how  collective spaces are produced in the absence of state structures and how these collective spaces are politicized for affirming rights beyond the nation state.  (Sandi Hilal founded, with Alessandro Petti and Eyal Weizman, Decolonizing Architecture, in Beit Sahour, Palestine, and holds the Keith Haring Fellowship in Art and Activism for 2016-17.)

2-credits. Scholars, students, and other researchers around the world are routinely threatened, jailed, or punished. Sometime they are simply trapped in a dangerous place, while in other cases they are deliberately targeted because of their identity or their work. Academic freedom, or freedom of thought and inquiry, is usually considered a basic human right, but its definition and content is essentially contested. This seminar will explore the idea of academic freedom by examining — and attempting to intervene in — situations where it is threatened. In conjunction with the human rights organization Scholars at Risk, we will investigate the cases of scholars currently living under threat and develop projects aimed at releasing them from detention or securing refuge for them. This will involve direct hands-on advocacy work with SAR, taking public positions and creating smart and effective advocacy campaigns for specific endangered students, teachers, and researchers. In order not to do this naively or uncritically, we will explore the history and theory of human rights advocacy on behalf of ‘prisoners of conscience,’ the genealogy of ‘academic freedom,’ and the ethics and politics of risk and rescue. This course is part of the Courage To Be College Seminar Series; students are required to attend three lectures in the in Courage to Be Lecture Series sponsored by the Hannah Arendt Center.
