TAKE HOME FINAL
Each essay 3-4 pages typed, double spaced. Choose two. Due Wednesday, June 8th, 5:00 PM.
FINAL EXAM—TAKE HOME VERSION.
1. Is the “minimalism” promoted by Ignatieff consistent with Shue’s approach to basic rights? Is there tension between the two positions? In your essay, be sure to explain how these positions might appear to be in tension with each other, and how they might fit together (while making clear which interpretation you find to be correct).
2. What problems does the “cross-cultural” approach to human rights solve? What problems does it create? Which are more significant? What alternatives are there to the cross-cultural approach?
3. What is the biggest problem in constructing a theoretical justification for the idea of human rights? Be as precise as possible, and try to show how this problem plagues at least two theories from this course.
