Dignity is an important component of conversations on ethics, morals, and law, but whose dignity is being discussed? Why do we invoke dignity in human rights and sexuality, politics and personal practices? What should we be suspicious of in dignitarian debates, and which aspects of dignity discourses are worth embracing? Join us for a moderated panel discussion on the power dynamics that shape the concept of human dignity.
This event is presented by Contending Modernities and The Center for Civil and Human Rights.
