LABOR 325 - Workers’ Rights and Human Rights

3 Credit(s) | Lecture |
Course can be counted for credit once

Description:
This course not only explores how diverse groups of working people from around the world have understood and defended their rights over time, but examines the historical evolution and relationship between what came to be understood as “workers’ rights’ and “human rights.” How have the very notions of workers’ rights and human rights changed over time, what has their relationship been, and how have these understandings shaped the efforts by various actors to both defend and attack the rights of working people? How has the understanding, application, and defense of rights been shaped by race, gender, nationality, and class?
