INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS

you will read the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948), arguably the most important international human rights document in the history of the world. You will also read an article by Ronald Osborn which argues that Christianity was essential to the emergence of the very concept at the center of this declaration. Finally, the Nau textbook describes some of the efforts the international community has made to uphold and promote human rights globally. In a 400-500 word essay, please address the following questions:

• Is there such a thing as “universal human rights”? How have Christian ethical teachings contributed to the emergence of the idea of human rights?
• Is the effort to protect such rights globally a worthwhile and realistic pursuit?

All submissions should be double-spaced, in 12-point Times New Roman font, and should have a title page that includes the word count for the paper. Use parenthetical citations with page numbers (if available) when referring to any sources, including the textbook.

Please include at least one Biblical reference i.e. Scripture from the Bible
