Details

Human dignity has a future. It is clear that – despite accusations about its emptiness or redundancy – human dignity is a central part of our moral and legal vocabulary and it will continue to shape our understanding of human rights, global justice, and normative theory.

However, if it is to retain its critical power, and if it is to continue to guide the development of human rights law, its application to new social, technological, and political challenges must be justified and explored. This conference seeks to open new pathways in understanding human dignity and seeks to explore the expansion of human dignity to new and emerging social problems.
