Day of Study on “Human Rights, hope and disappointments”
Thursday 21 November (9:45 am, Aula Magna “Giovanni Paolo II”), on the initiative of the School of Canon Law and in collaboration with the University of Roma Tre, took place a Day of Study on “Human Rights, hope and disappointments.”
The purpose of the event - explains the organizors - is "to explore the mechanisms and content of some of the main metamorphoses that the theme of human rights has undergone and passed through in the last few decades."
In fact, "following the first phase of exaltation and affermation of human rights, which can be reduced to the decades 1950-1990, a newer phase was opened that presents problematic aspects to the point that it sheds light on some degeneration and disceases."
Presiding over the two sessions that day will be Cardinals Giuseppe Betori, Archbishop of Florence, and Attilio Nicora, President of the Authority of Financial Information (A.I.F.). Also present, in addition, will be Prof. Guiliano Amato, Judge of the Consitutional Court.
The event has been organized under the High Patronage of the President of the Republic.
