Optional Paper-VIII: Human Rights 100 Marks

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES

Human Rights Law is a distinct area of law and raises a number of challenging questions for
lawyers: How can international human rights standards be implemented across diverse cultures,
nations, religions, economic systems? What rights and responsibilities does the individual have
under international law? What is the relationship between state sovereignty and human rights?
These questions are of concern not only to international lawyers but also to all those interested in
understanding the difficulties that arise in protecting human rights at an international level.

Part One of the Human Rights course introduces students to the international system for the
protection of human rights, as developed through the United Nations system post-1945. Students
are introduced to the theoretical and practical problems that arise when attempting to enforce
international standards for the protection of human rights.
