課程大綱 Course syllabus

This graduate seminar focuses on the tension, if any, between international justice and human rights norms and human rights laws. To this end, we will examine statements that argue for and statements that argue against the proposition that human rights norms, laws and treaties at the local, regional, and international levels advance justice for the individual, groups, member-states of the United Nations, humanity as a whole, and all the species on the planet. We will consider whether and how human rights serve justice, what sort of justice, justice for whom? Does justice mean “just ‘us’”? Do human rights help or harm justice? What is the relationship between justice and human rights? Should the two institutions, regimes, and categories be theorized in parallel to one another, never overlapping at all, or might the two be combined, equated as the same? Finally, and most importantly, in Asian countries, for example, China, Indonesia, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam, how are human rights received? Are human rights accepted or rejected, or fudged and/or “contextualized”? If so, by whom? for what purposes? who benefits? loses? In short, do human rights apply to Asian countries that have traditionally upheld values said to be at odds with the values embodied and/or expressed by international human rights principles? The values enshrined in international human rights documents, we are told, are not universal values but “individualistic” and “Western” values. Do you agree? If so, why; if not, why not?
In particular, for the fall 2021 semester, the scope will be enlarged to encompass interdisciplinary issues of global transformations and governance challenges. We will work through theory-driven empirical research articles and books addressing these and related questions: How are global issues (the covid-19 pandemic, climate change and/or global warming, racial justice, legacies of colonialism) and cross-border movements (e.g., refugees entering Europe from the Middle East) changing citizen attitudes toward national sovereignty, democratic accountability, and the legitimacy of liberal democracy? Are these phrased in terms of human rights? If not, why not?
How are changing public expectations (nationalist and populist sentiments, such as Brexit) affecting national governments’ attitudes toward international cooperation, global governance, and openness to cross-border movements? Should each national government advance its own interests only? Is this a human right? for whom?
What concrete innovations are necessary to make global governance mechanisms more effective in addressing today’s cross-border issues while ensuring their democratic legitimacy at a time of declining trust in public institutions? Do individuals and peoples have the right to cross borders? How might such migration be stopped? Can such migration be stopped? Is freedom of movement a human right?
How are existing and emerging cross-border issues, as well as the rise of new world powers, challenging the present governance institutions at national and global levels? Does a world order, a world system exist? Is the U.N. it? What is the U.N.? Is there a human right to a world order?
By nature, some of the reading assignments are theoretical, philosophical, and analytical, others concrete and empirical. There will be arguments that some students find disappointing. There are too many materials to read and not enough time to discuss them. This seminar never pays enough attention to the materials that some students like; we will spend too much time on arguments, statements, and work that you don’t like. Some students will find some theories objectionable, while others will embrace the same theories that others find objectionable. Have an open mind. Ask yourself what is your reason for going to college?

課程目標 Objectives

(See course outline)

授課方式 Teaching methods

Students are required to do the weekly readings. For the first half of the semester, the readings will cover major and oft-cited statements for and against the proposition that human rights serve to advance justice. These materials tend to emphasize theoretical arguments and issues. For the second half of the semester, the reading materials may change as new publications appear in print or pre-publication copies are circulated. Scholars and guest lecturers may participate. In general, contemporary debates in local and national contexts will be examined, with an eye on Asia. Scholars in Asia and elsewhere working on various aspects of human rights might participate and present some part(s) of their research and findings. Students are required to give presentations in class. Paper topics and due dates will be announced by the end of the fourth week.
