SUMMARY:Master class with Brooke Ackerly (Vanderbilt University): “Ground
 ed Normative Theory: Methods for Human Rights Research and Theory”
DESCRIPTION:Contact: eric.brandstedt@mrs.lu.se\n\nNormative theorists and p
 olitical philosophers have always wanted to be relevant to the real world.
  However\, there is increasing recognition that the real world is relevant
  to normative and political philosophy\, particularly when questions of st
 ructural injustice such as global justice\, human rights\, and climate cha
 nge are at stake. What does this mean for how we do normative theorizing t
 hat matters in the real world? What does responsible grounded normative th
 eory require?&nbsp\;In this master class\, Professor Ackerly will share th
 e thought processes behind the key methodological steps of her book with M
 ujibul Anam on climate justice\, human rights and philanthropy. Students w
 ill be invited to prepare by reading a draft chapter from the book (“The
 orizing about Climate Justice in place: implementing feminist Engaged and 
 Grounded Normative Theory and Practice in Bangladesh”). Interested stude
 nts can also submit a title\, abstract\, and question related to their own
  work in progress. The goal of the master class is to enable students to b
 e informed and engaged readers (critics) of engaged grounded normative the
 ory EGNT.&nbsp\;Those who are interested in developing their own practice 
 of engaged and grounded normative theory will also get concrete feedback o
 n how to develop an EGNT methodology that is suitable for their question\,
  timeframe\, and budget. While recursivity is an important tool of EGNT\, 
 it does not mean that the work proceeds with limitless time and budget. An
 y project worth doing is worth doing well. Good research design takes into
  account constraints.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;Limited number of seats.Registra
 tion required by Tuesday\, May 13th using the following form: https://www.
