This class discusses theoretical debates on human rights within the discipline of anthropology and contrasts these approaches to those of other disciplines. Once students acquire this foundation, they apply their knowledge to a human rights problem of their own choice. They identify a researchable question about human rights and use appropriate evidence and methods to substantiate their claims. Students will also learn through experience the ethic dimensions of research and how research can have an important impact on society.
