How well has
the Western human rights paradigm traveled outside of its home territories?
Europe has, to be sure, the most effective regional human rights mechanism in
the European Court for Human Rights. But what about developments in Africa or

mix? Panelists will look into either regional institutions, or developments
within a particular state (India, China, South Africa, etc.)
