Abstract

A major area of critical scholarship within human rights education (HRE) aims to discover HRE’s revolutionary potential by questioning its relationship to the global human rights regime. However, the very concept of “human rights violations” remains underexamined. This article analyzes the use and function of human rights violations as pedagogical devices. Drawing from qualitative data collected in two public high schools in New York City (2014–2015), this study explores the limitations of teaching human rights through the legal definition of human rights violations. In doing so, HRE positions human rights violations primarily as manifestations of direct violence. We argue that to teach human rights violations also as expressions of structural violence can help students cultivate powerful and transformative forms of knowledge.
透过结构性暴力侵害人权:纽约市人权教育个案研究
人权教育(HRE)中一个重要的批判性学术领域旨在通过质疑其与全球人权制度的关系来发现HRE的革命潜力。然而,“侵犯人权”的概念本身仍然没有得到充分审查。本文分析了侵犯人权作为教学手段的使用和功能。根据2014-2015年在纽约市两所公立高中收集的定性数据,本研究通过对侵犯人权行为的法律定义来探讨人权教学的局限性。在这样做时,人权高专办将侵犯人权行为主要视为直接暴力的表现。我们认为,将侵犯人权行为也作为结构性暴力的表现形式来教授,可以帮助学生培养强大和变革的知识形式。
