The case for human rights realism and restraint in the new era
Comparative Frameworks for a Human Rights-Based Approach to Psychedelics
It has in recent years become unremarkable to say that a human rights-based approach to drug policy should be taken. However, despite some pioneering work on the topic, it remains unclear what this should mean in practice. In this article, I focus on the particular case of one class of internationally controlled substances, psychedelics, and examine potential groundings (and tensions) within international human rights law for their regulation and…
A Larger ‘We’; Identity, Spirituality and Social Change in Pluralistic Societies
Over the last decade, in the United States in particular, there has been an increasingly acute awareness of historic and ongoing social, racial, gender, and other disparities, and the frequent deployment of categories (for example BIPOC, LGBTQQIA2SP+, Latinx) and concepts (for example ‘cultural appropriation’, ‘white privilege’, ‘intersectionality’) that centre thinking and conversations around various axes of difference. For some critics, the hy…

Although there appears to be a growing interest in exploring the crossroads between spirituality and social change, spirituality remains a relatively obscure topic within mainstream international human rights. This article will explore what a more spiritual grounding for human rights might look like and how it might change perspectives and practices from the comparatively conventional and mainstream. Viewing conventional human rights thinking, po…

While in many ways a positive development, this newfound critical enthusiasm risks producing an unwarranted sense of pessimism and failure. This points to the need to better manage expectations a…
Development, Human Rights and Transitional Justice: Global Projects for Global Governance
It would be hard to understand contemporary social, economic and political order in the world without considering the role of development, human rights and transitional justice as collective global (and globalizing) projects (Global Projects).1 If each of the three areas is still subject to at times vigorous debate, they nevertheless assume the character of Global Projects based on their overall projection of a sense of momentum, inevitability an…
