Race, Rights and Revolution—Democratic Enigmas, Relentless Struggles and the Modern Republic: A History
Date: 11/18 MON
Time: 13:20-16:20
Venue: R106A HA Building 2 at NCTU

Today millions of stateless people roam the world from Miramar to Afghanistan, from Palestine and Syria to the Sudan and Central America. The UN Declaration of Human Rights has become a hollow promise, the cry “Never Again” a cruel mockery. How were the Age of Revolution’s brave promises of freedom and democracy, liberty and equality so brutally betrayed?
