EdX: Human Rights Theory and Philosophy

Australia's Curtin University offers this EdX course dedicated to the history of universal human rights, along with critiques of this concept. This twelve week course, taught by a team of scholars from Curtin University's Centre for Human Rights Education, may appeal to instructors and students of philosophy, political theory, history, education, social work, and more. Topics explored in this course include the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and its legacy; postmodernist critiques of human rights; postcolonial and decolonial critiques; feminist critiques; sexual orientation and gender identity; and the intersection between human rights and environmental issues. These topics are explored via readings, video-recorded lectures, short assignments, and online discussion. As with all EdX courses, visitors may audit this course for free, or earn a certificate for a course fee.

Maybe it is just an honest mistake but why do you recommend a seminar that has already started? Regards Wolfgang
