CEPA Public Lecture: Kit Wellman

Thu, 01/22/2015 - 16:00

Abstract provided by Professor Wellman: “I will argue that, absent special circumstances, there are no moral, judicial procedural rights. First I contend that punishing a criminal without first establishing her guilt via a fair trial does not necessarily violate her rights. Next I respond to a number of possible objections. And if time permits, I will consider the implications of my arguments for the human right to due process.”
