| Workshop on Law, Politics and Human Rights March 20-21, 2009 Location: North Decatur Building: Room 155 (March 20) Candler Library: Room 114 (March 21) Summary: This workshop is designed to promote and help develop research on a few core political questions, which transcend traditional disciplinary boundaries. Why do states adopt legal obligations that limit their authority over human rights, and then delegate the enforcement of these obligations to domestic and/or international judicial bodies? Under what conditions will states comply with these obligations? More specifically, under what conditions will the courts to which enforcement power has been delegated come to constitute genuine constraints on state behavior? Getting the right answers to these questions is critical for designing good international institutions, for knowing what kinds of domestic reforms should be supported, and for setting our expectations appropriately about what can be accomplished by international advocacy and foreign aid. The substantive goal of the workshop is to summarize, through our collective research, what each of our subfields has to say about these questions. In particular, we wish to know whether there are results or methodological strategies in one field that can help address a research problem in another. We would like to ask whether existing data is sufficient to test our theoretical claims, and if not, how might we go about collecting what we need. And, of course, we wish to discover new questions that have emerged in our respective projects. Beyond substance, we want to provide a comfortable setting within which people can present their work and receive feedback from a community of scholars analyzing related problems.
