1 UNIVERSITY OF NAIROBI CENTER FOR HUMAN RIGHTS AND PEACE (CHRP) CHR 609: Human Rights and Culture Lecturer: Jefwa Mweri, PhD CHR 609: CULTURE AND HUMAN RIGHTS The place of culture in social, economic and political life; culture and identity; indigenous people s rights; cultural relativism and the definition of human rights in different cultures; human rights as a cultural practice; culture and development; cultural practices that inhibit and promote human rights: language, marriage, family systems, religious practices, ownership of property, taboos, initiation rites, division of labour, the age factor and children s rights; culture and environmental concern; cultural -identity boundaries, separatism; conflict and human rights; culture, ethnicity and democracy; the centre-periphery model of culture, space and rights; tradition, modernity and the problem of human rights. COURSE SYNOPSIS: This course is about the study of cultural issues in their relation to human rights. It analyzes how cultural difference and human rights operate both in theory and in practice. The course also addresses challenges that particular cultures play to recognition of universal human rights and the notion of building a human rights culture. The course will also examine how different cultures view human rights and the degree to which cultural differences in the conception of human rights affect the universality of those rights. This way we hope to forge a new perspective of looking at critical issues that recognizes that the establishment and defense of cultural rights can provide a means of preserving cultural integrity and heritage, and, second, achieving social justice for all. COURSE ORGANIZATION: The course is divided into four main topics with several subtopics First, the course begins with an examination of the place of culture in social, economic and political life; culture and identity; indigenous people s rights. The concept of the universality of human rights which also touches on the ethics of human rights will also be examined. Students will be required to examine both the global origins and foundation of human rights. Second, the course analyzes intercultural dialogue and its different approaches. What are the challenges particular cultures play to recognition of universal human CHR 609: CULTURE AND HUMAN RIGHTS Page 1
2 rights and the dilemmas which different conceptions of human rights language and practice pose for diverse cultures. Students will examine human rights as a cultural practice and issues of culture and development. Third, the course turns to the notion of cultural rights and violations and examines the different causes of human rights violations. This is aimed at building a human rights culture, as a means of understanding who human rights actors are, how human rights norms form, and engaging with issues of how human rights may function across cultures and in unique ways within cultures. Finally, the course analyzes the concept of multiculturalism which focuses on coexistence and tolerance to diversity so as to apply the notions of culture and human rights into the empirical lens of how a new human right forms and functions. Syllabus change policy This syllabus is a guide and every attempt is made to provide an accurate overview of the course. However, circumstances and events may make it necessary for the instructor to modify the syllabus during the semester and may depend, in part, on the progress, needs, and experiences of the students. Changes to the syllabus will be made with advance notice Questions to be considered: The universality of human rights Moral universals do they exist or is it a question of cultural imperialism? Is morality linked to culture? Or is it cultural relative? What is the role of culture for people and their identity? Do cultures really differ with respect to human rights? Are cultural differences in some sense real, or are they constructed, or both, and why does it matter? Are Human rights universal or are they an imposition of the cultural norms of the west on other cultures? Is the perception of human rights and democracy the same world over? Is democracy the best form of government and should it be culturally sensitive? Intercultural dialogue Is it possible to develop culturally sensitive approaches to the issues of human right? How possible is it to establish linkages between local cultural values and universally recognized human rights? Which approach is best in establishing intercultural dialogue? CHR 609: CULTURE AND HUMAN RIGHTS Page 2
3 Is it possible to achieve universality of human rights through intercultural dialogue? Cultural rights and violations What role do different institutions play in the violation of cultural rights? Is selfishness a factor in the violation of rights? What role does culture play in rights violation? Multiculturalism Is it possible to develop a human rights culture? Can we talk of equality and still be tolerant to diversity Is there a way to bridge the gap between human rights universalism and cultural relativism? How significant is local adaptation of human rights discourse? What are the main obstacles to creating a strong human rights culture in all societies of the world? Will a stronger human rights culture necessarily lead to better practices? What else should be done? LEARNING OBJECTIVES: This course is generally aimed at analyzing how cultural difference and human rights operate both in theory and in practice and to impart knowledge about the nature and significance of the interplay between human rights and culture. By the end of this course, students should be able to: Understand the main debates in the field of human rights as they relate to culture and be able to contribute to these debates with clarity, personal reflection, empirical examples, and theoretical foundations; Identify key literature, debates, and ideas in the field of human rights and culture Debate with authority contemporary developments pertaining to generating a culture of human rights; Conduct analysis of a case study about culture and human rights as relates to the main debates in the field; Think creatively and effectively about human rights and cultural difference in current practice. Teaching Methodology: Lectures Group discussions, workshops Research and presentation of case studies CHR 609: CULTURE AND HUMAN RIGHTS Page 3
