概要:
The human rights enterprise is now under assault in a way that hasn’t been seen in years. Not only are rising authoritarian powers openly disdainful of rights principles, which they denounce as decadent and subversive, but powerful constituencies are undermining basic rights protections even in established liberal democracies. How should human rights advocacy and social justice campaigners take stock of these trends and adapt to this challenging environment?
In this book launch seminar, Professor Jack Snyder (Columbia University) and Professor Leslie Vinjamuri (University of London) will discuss their new book Human Rights Futures, (edited by Stephen Hopgood, Jack Snyder, and Leslie Vinjamuri, with contributions from fifteen prominent social scientists including Sally Merry, Sam Moyn, Kathryn Sikkink, and Beth Simmons), which debates the effectiveness and prospects for strategies of human rights advocacy. Four contending approaches will be discussed: stay the course, empower rights through political pragmatism, translate rights talk into the vernacular, and subordinate rights talk to more resonant social justice appeals.
