Are human rights a social construct? Professor Benjamin Gregg, author of Human Rights as Social Construction and Creating Human Nature: The Political Challenges of Genetic Engineering, argues they are, but thinking of human rights as a social construct strengthens them. In this in-person discussion, we explore how political communities can self-author human rights, whether or not human rights require cultural imperialism to impose, and the human rights questions raised by genetic engineering.
