Sessions 4-11 look more closely at specific areas of international law. Sessions 4-5 concern human rights law in Asia. We will broach the universality of human rights, and look at Asian approaches to human rights. As the recent publication of the UN Report on the human rights situation of the Uyghurs in China has put the treatment of minorities by Asian states back into focus, we address the protection of minorities and indigenous peoples in Asia. Sessions 6-7, are about whether the international human rights regime can protect minorities, and why it might be difficult to apply the concept of “indigenous peoples” in Asia. In Sessions 8-9, we discuss a complex maritime and territorial dispute in Asia: The South China Sea Dispute. We will compare the legal arguments of both States, and address the scepticism of Asian states towards international dispute settlement. The final two sessions are devoted to Asia’s role in the shaping contemporary international economic law.
