Program Overview
Human rights mobilise millions of supporters across borders, inspiring passion and hope. And they operate at and between all the scales involved in globalisation: local, national, international, transnational. They are moral claims to justice. Although often associated with law, human rights are not the same as legal rights – human rights can be claimed where no legal rights are codified, even if changes in the law are invariably called for as part of attempts to realise human rights in practice.
Human rights are carried by different actors:
- grassroots social movements, small Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) and huge International Non-Governmental Organisations (INGOs)
- lawyers and judges
- bureaucrats and experts in Inter-Governmental Organisations (IGOs) even, sometimes, national politicians
- journalists, novelists, translators, artists, filmmakers
These different actors are often at odds with each other in defining and defending particular justifications of what human rights are and should be.
