Contributing authors also address approaches grounded in theory, political economy, and qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods research, enabling instructors to demonstrate the roles of ideas, actors and institutions in realizing human dignity. Ultimately, Teaching Human Rights in Political Science provides a varied toolkit of learning techniques such as discussions, simulations, policy briefings and debates to help instructors maximize student engagement.
