Department of Media and Communications and Sociology Department public lecture
The challenge of cosmopolitanism is often framed in terms of a lack of perception and imagination. While we can imagine the bounded community of the nation, it is more difficult to imagine common humanity, and this impedes the adoption of human rights legislation. This lecture argues for a biopolitical conception of human rights which radically challenges conventional approaches.
Pheng Cheah is professor in the Department of Rhetoric, University of California at Berkeley.
