This class introduces students to the cultural dimensions of climate change in international human rights law and politics. We will examine key ideas like crisis, utopias, and futures and future generations that form the actionable, imaginative, and narrative basis of the sustainable development agenda of the UN. We will compare how these concepts occur in law and in contemporary literature and media to understand the correlations of the politics and aesthetics of climate change. For their final project, students will create a critical glossary of terms that they deem essential to understanding climate change and human rights.
