Sebbene il concetto di diritti umani appaia spesso nella trattazione accademica e non delle questioni internazionali - le attuali crisi mediorientali e il conseguente flusso migratorio ne sono un chiaro esempio - la fondazione filosofica di questi diritti, la loro ambizione di essere validi al di là dele differenze di tradizioni culturali e religiose, la lorto capacità di essere una sorta di religione secolarizzata dell'umanità rimangono in dubbio. Questo corso introduce gli studenti al dibattito filosofico su questi temi e li stimola a sviluppare un pensiero informato e autonomo.
