Comment
This seminar examines the tension between sovereignty, collective security, and individual human rights within the contemporary international order. Combining doctrinal foundations with interdisciplinary simulations, the course connects international legal norms to professional decision-making across law, social work, political science, and economics. Students revisit the structure of international law—treaty law, customary law, sovereignty, statehood, the United Nations system, the prohibition of the use of force, and the role of the International Court of Justice—alongside the core instruments of international human rights law, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenants, and the Convention on the Rights of the Child. Situating these legal frameworks within the dilemmas of humanitarian intervention, geopolitical constraint, and post-conflict reconstruction, the seminar explores why the international community often fails to act despite legal and moral imperatives, and how veto powers, regional politics, and resource considerations shape collective responses. By foregrounding the divide between individual and collective rights and examining the interaction between international human rights law and humanitarian law (jus ad bellum and jus in bello), the course equips students to critically navigate the ethical, political, and institutional trade-offs that arise in contexts of mass violence, reconciliation, and state rebuilding.
