With authoritarian regimes on the rise around the world, the need to protect basic human rights is more urgent than ever. How can law schools, law students, and law faculties help do this critical work — at home and internationally?Three Berkeley Law experts join Dean Erwin Chemerinsky for this episode: Chancellor’s Clinical Professor Laurel E. Fletcher, co-director of the school’s International Human Rights Law Clinic and its Miller Institute for Global Challenges and the Law; Eric Stover, faculty director of the Berkeley Human Rights Center; and Professor Saira Mohamed, whose research focuses on criminal law and human rights. About: More Just from Berkeley Law is a podcast about how law schools can and must play a role in solving society’s most difficult problems. The rule of law — and the role of the law — has never been more important. In these difficult times, law schools can, and must, play an active role in finding solutions. But how? Each episode of More Just starts with a problem, then explores potential solutions, featuring Dean Erwin Chemerinsky as well as other deans, professors, students, and advocates, about how they’re making law schools matter. Have a question about teaching or studying law, or a topic you’d like Dean Chemerinsky to explore?
