This assignment will require you to examine a specific case (or cases) of a violation of human rights. Specifically, I am
asking you to discuss the form of violation as well of the response to this violation. This assignment will consist of three parts (which will be described in greater detail below): a summary of the violation, an application of one (or more) of
the articles from the U.N.’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights to this case, and a brief discussion.
Section 1: Summary of the Case
In this section you should provide a brief summary of the specific violation you selected. Specifically, you should begin with a summary of the case, which will include all relevant parties (including individuals, groups, organizations,
governments, etc.) as well as the particulars of the case. Your goal is to summarize the events in such a way that a
reader would not need to seek additional information. Finally, make sure to include a brief discussion about how this
case was dealt with. In other words, take some time to address the outcomes of the case. Make sure to cite your sources properly using APA format. This section should be about one page (600 words) and will be worth 30% of your Writing Assignment

Completeness of summary: Did the summary contain all of the relevant concepts and facts surrounding the event?
Section 2: Analysis of the Case
In this section of the assignment you will apply the U.N. Universal Declaration of Human Rights to the case you
summarized in section one. This will be an academic application of specific articles from the declaration. In this section
you should discuss which specific articles (i.e. rights) were violated in this case. Make sure to include brief description
of the article (rather than a quote of the entire article). The goal of this section is to demonstrate your understand of the U.N.’s declaration and the case you chose. Therefore, you should make to include a justification or explanation as to why these specific articles were violated. Again, make sure to cite your sources properly using APA format. This section
should be about two to three (800 words) pages and will be worth 40% of your Writing Assignment #2 grade and will be examined based on the following rubric:

facts?

assignment. In about a page (600 words) you should look back over your work and present a discussion of your major
“take-aways”. Some questions you may want to consider:
