Through controlled exercises stemming from specific inquiries into whether human rights are inalienable or an irrelevance in contemporary international crises, students will be given the opportunity to practise presenting researched scholarly contentions. Students will learn to devise compelling hooks, introductions and conclusions, coherent oral argumentation, and accessible references. Presentations might address philosophies of human rights, imaginative literature's interactions with human rights violations, as well as contemporary issues such as reproductive autonomy, anti-racist governance, induced migration and displacement, trans liberation, the law of war, and climate change; students can choose their topics. On completion of the course, students will be able to convey nuanced ideas in an academic register and to engage constructively with interest in their work. |
