HUS 364 - Human Rights Violation: Torture and Trauma

3 CR

Human Rights refer to the basic rights and freedoms to which all humans are entitled. To violate the most basic human rights, is to deny individuals their fundamental moral entitlements. The focus of the course will be on how the experience of intentional psychological and physical torture affect individuals, families and societies. We will discuss the short-term and long-term psychological, neurological, biological, social and disability-related consequences of torture and trauma. (This course is cross-listed with JUS 364  and SSC 364 .)

Prerequisite(s): PSY 100 .
