A Forum for Works in Progress

Jack Donnelly and J. Eric Dibbern, Editors

The HRHW Working Papers website provides a neutral forum where human rights scholars and students may share with their peers work in progress, in order to publicize their work and seek comments and feedback from interested colleagues. The HRHW Working Papers site is managed under the auspices of Human Rights & Human Welfare by the Josef Korbel School of International Studies at the University of Denver.
