With Matiangai Sirleaf, Nathan Patz Professor of Law at the University of Maryland School of Law.

Does the genealogy of human rights matter? Why is the history in this field important and potentially controversial. In this presentation we will consider the following: Who do the different histories center? Who do they leave out?

What do you think about the different origin claims? What would it mean to accept any one starting point? We will also examine the main critiques of international human rights law and evaluate which ones you find most persuasive and powerful and why.
