Course Title: DDRO 25A55 - Critiques of Human Rights from the Peripheries
Course Number: 17764
Course Description: This course is designed to introduce various critiques of human rights outside the tutelage of hegemonic legal rationalities. To this end, the course will engage with authors and philosophers from the Global South in order to introduce students to the scholarship from the perspective of the so-called peripheries. The human rights framework has been widely criticised for its inadequate engagement with the practical realities of the Global South and these seminars aim to introduce these critiques and provide students with the tools to meaningfully participate in these debates. The course will cover critiques relating to various socio-political, socio-economic and gender related rights from the peripheries.
