Subject outline
Students in this unit study the core elements and fundamental issues in international and Australian human rights law. We consider the philosophical basis that underlies the international human rights framework, and then examine various methods for the enforcement or realisation of human rights at both an international and domestic level. We consider case studies in the areas of civil and political rights, economic, social and cultural rights, and the field of emerging rights. .
