The Political History section will organise a workshop with Samuel Moyn (Yale University) and Naomi Woltring (commentator) on Human Rights History after the Inequality Debate on 14 June.

Samuel Moyn has written several books on European intellectual history and human rights history, including The Last Utopia: Human Rights in History (Harvard University Press, 2010), and edited or coedited a number of others. His most recent book, based on Mellon Distinguished Lectures at the University of Pennsylvania in fall 2014, is Christian Human Rights (2015). His new book, Not Enough: Human Rights in an Unequal World, was released from Harvard University Press in April 2018. Read an excerpt here.
