Overview

Students have the opportunity to examine human rights in historical context. They can examine how ideas of human rights have developed historically and choose optional modules that relate to the field of human rights. The course allows them to experience both disciplines, and to graduate with a strong competence in history and the study of human rights. Within the history modules students discover both the early modern and modern periods, and explore challenging questions concerning the impact of political, social and cultural change on individuals, social groups, and regions. Students engage in a discourse on human rights, from political, sociological, philosophical, economic and historical perspectives. They are presented with the theoretical foundations, substantive knowledge, and evaluative tools for them to understand, respond to, and help shape national, regional, and international legal and political developments. At Essex they are actively engaged in debates about the meaning of justice in the UK and beyond. Their Human Rights Centre is a recognized international leader. Through their work with the United Nations, governments, human rights organizations and corporations all over the world, they bring a global outlook to their teaching.
