The 2000 CBC Massey Lectures, The Rights Revolution by Michael Ignatieff
In his 2000 Massey Lectures on "The Rights Revolution," Michael Ignatieff confronted the conflicted rise of human rights language in Canadian and global politics. "Has the rights revolution brought us closer together as a nation, or driven us further apart?," he asks in his fifth lecture. We revisit these Massey Lectures, as part of our series marking the 60th anniversary of Massey College.
