This course explores the development of human rights law and the judicial institutions responsible for that law in both the United States and Europe. Designed for students drawn to reading and debating opinions of courts of last resort, CJS challenges students to examine cutting-edge legal controversies from a European perspective, including, but not necessarily limited to matters of gender, reproductive rights, freedom of expression, religious freedom, discrimination, torture, and criminal procedure. A lion’s share of case-law readings will be drawn from landmark decisions delivered by the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) that will reveal a united Europe’s perspective on human rights issues.
