HRTS 3540.002: Topics in Human Rights Practice - Revolution Meets Resolution: A Peacemaker’s Guide to Justice
W 12:20-3:20pm
Marie Pace

The relationship between the fields of human rights and peace/conflict studies has historically been marked by tension rooted in differing priorities and approaches. Human rights scholars and practitioners often focus on accountability, justice, and the strict application of international legal standards, sometimes advocating for punitive measures against violators. Meanwhile, the peace & conflict community tends to prioritize mending social fragmentation through such methods as dialogue, negotiation, and reconciliation, aiming to find common ground and foster relationships between conflicting parties. This divergence has led to friction, with human rights advocates sometimes viewing peacemakers as compromising justice for stability, while peacemakers may see strict human rights approaches as potentially prolonging conflicts by hardening positions and undermining social cohesion.

This course will challenge the notion that these two approaches to social transformation—revolution vs. resolution—must be at odds, instead positing that sustainable peace and justice are deeply interconnected. We will explore how the principles and practices of peacemaking can enrich and enhance the field of human rights. At this critical historic moment, where extreme polarization has arguably become a defining feature of American society, and with violent conflict on the rise globally, this course aims to equip human rights students with essential insights, frameworks, and tools from peace studies. The goal is to empower students to engage the issues they care about in ways that can potentially heal social divisions and foster both justice and sustainable peace.

How do countries cope with periods of massive human rights abuses committed in the past?
