Seyla Benhabib: Cosmopolitan Norms, Human Rights, and Democratic Iterations
Monday October 27, 2008 | 07:00 -09:00 PM |
Presidential Lecturer
Professor Benhabib will discuss one of the most divisive controversies of our times: What are cosmopolitan rights? Are they, as some argue, “the Trojan horse” of an imperial neo-liberal order extending throughout the globe? Or are they principles of any future cosmopolitical order based on the principles of equality, autonomy, and self-government?
