@article{Donnelly_2010, place={Washington DC: American Sociological Association.}, title={INTS 4940, INTRODUCTION TO HUMAN RIGHTS}, url={https://trails.asanet.org/article/view/ints-4940-introduction-to-human-rights}, abstractNote={This course provides a theoretical and historical introduction to human rights, on the premise that a sound understanding of contemporary practice and debates requires grounding in their historical and theoretical roots and foundations. The course will be taught entirely in a free-form discussion format. I will never lecture – although you can be assured that I will have plenty to say in the course of our discussions! Typically, I will begin class by asking, "Where do you want to start today?" and then let the discussion flow from there (with a greater or lesser degree of channeling and redirection). For the class to work, it is essential that you have not only read but thought about the readings for that week. You will be required to shoulder the burden of an active role in the direction that the course unfolds. In return, though, you are assured that if there is an issue that interests, excites, or bothers you, we will be able to devote considerable time and attention to it.}, journal={TRAILS: Teaching Resources and Innovations Library for Sociology}, author={Donnelly, Jack}, year={2010}, month={Apr.} }
