This lecture will outline the evolution of human rights ideas from a pedagogical elite vision in the ancient Greek society over the idea of Christian equality to a modern political concept on the national and after 1945 on the international level. It will encompass approaches from political philosophy as well as international relations. Special emphasis will be given to consequences of the the international Human Rights framework and its consequences, which challenge and slowly transform the international order - f.e. the problematic of Humanitarian Interventions, the Responsibility to Protect, rights to develop, etc.Objectives: Profound understanding of 1. the concept's evolution, 2. the significance of the international human rights regime for current armed conflicts, war and migration, 3. the inter-cultural dimension. Awareness for human rights issues at all levels.Literature:
