Thinking about Russia's Military Aggression against Ukraine: Perspectives on International Law and Beyond the Boundaries of International Law (International Human Rights Seminar hosted by the Faculty of Global Humanities Social Sciences)

This seminar is designed to share with the public, not only within the university, how the "Russian military aggression against Ukraine" is viewed from the perspective of international law and the current status, challenges, and future of international law.
*Language: Japanese only

In "Part 1: Perspectives on Law," Associate Professor Arinori Kawamura of Nagasaki University's Faculty of Global Humanities Social Sciences and Associate Professor Fumihiko Azuma of Sophia University's Faculty of Law will present a variety of perspectives on international law, while in "Part 2: Multiple Perspectives," specialists from our university, including constitutional law, religion, cultural anthropology (refugee and migration studies), philosophy and history of ideas, will present their views. The seminar is also an opportunity to learn from other perspectives.
We hope that this seminar will help you to think deeply about war once again.
