1 FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS Syllabus Aims and objectives of the course: The protection of fundamental rights is represented by international conventions, instruments, documents, case law, etc used to protect human rights at international, regional and national levels. It has become the minimum standard of protection in most countries. This course on fundamental rights will examine such rights through their protection by international human rights law and its procedures. It will include a detailed consideration of global, regional, and national mechanisms for the protection of fundamental rights. It looks at the substantive and procedural aspects as well as selected topics. The course is designed to provide an overview to international human rights laws, mechanisms, and practices. The course focuses on the central elements of human rights, including the creation of modern individual rights in the international legal system, the nature of these rights and of governments' obligations, and the systems in place at the United Nations and elsewhere to protect people from human rights violations. The aims of the course are to enable students to have a sound knowledge and understanding of the major areas of international human rights law, to enable students to appreciate the substantive protections of human rights at domestic, regional and international level, and to provide students with the ability to analyse and apply the law to factual situations, thus enabling them to apply the law of human rights to practical problems. It
2 further aims to enable students to acquire and enhance skills for effective application of the law of human rights. The course will provide students with the ability to critically assess the way human rights law applies and the operation of these rules. Teaching method: This course will require from students to do readings before the class. Each class will be focused on a specific topic. Students will be expected to have read all the materials fully as the class will involve student participation and discussion. There are no required textbooks. There are required readings that are on the website of the Faculty. Please check and follow the course in general and before each class for changes or additions. Discussion is an important element of the course, which is conducted as a quasiseminar rather than a lecture course. Assigned materials should be read prior to each class, and participation in class is essential and will be part of the final grade. A short daily what is in human rights news will be held. Students are expected to keep up with what is happening and contribute to this exercise. Please prepare at least one human rights news story for each class. Grades for the course will be made up of the following: 75 % for the research paper, and 25 % class participation or 100% for the exam. 2
3 The FINAL and complete long research paper of about 25 pages is due at the last class in both hard and soft copies. Essays are to be handed in both electronically and in hard copies at the last class. The essay must be of good written and research quality. It must be well researched using published material i.e. books and journals. Do not rely on internet materials that are not from published sources. References, including page numbers, must be systematic and complete. A complete, systematic and accurate bibliography must be attached. 3
