Global Politics: Human Rights and Justice is a CTY Princeton course.

Course Description

(from CTY handbook)

This course examines the roles and responsibilities of nations and international organizations (governmental and non-governmental) in areas of human rights and justice. Focusing on recent cases ranging from Rwanda to Yugoslavia to China to Iraq, students ask questions including how much independence individual nations should have in defining human rights standards, when a nation’s economic stability should outweigh other global responsibilities, and how nations can heal themselves in the aftermath of atrocities.
