The posed question about the possibility of applying the concept of human rights across borders and whether rights are culturally defined is an important topic worthy of discussion. This question prompts learners to think deeply about the challenges and obstacles that may arise when applying human rights concepts on a global level.
Critically critiquing traditional ideas about "rights being a good thing" helps open a discussion about the problems and challenges that may arise when applying these concepts on the international stage. This point helps enhance critical thinking and broadens the understanding of the deeper challenges facing global justice and human rights in international relations.
Overall, it seems that the course provides a valuable opportunity for learners to broaden their understanding of these complex topics and encourages them to think critically and creatively about the challenges and opportunities in the field of human rights and global justice.
