Rights of Indigenous Peoples and Minorities - IA010

This seminar aims to contextualise and analyse current legal standards – both international and regional – with regard to indigenous and minority rights. It will look at the meaning and possible effects of three categories of rights, that is, individual, collective and group rights, in fields such as language, religion, education, health, natural resources, land rights, and self-government. Students will be asked each to research a particular field and potential beneficiary from the start of the seminar by way of illustration, and with a view to fostering comparison and debate.
