SUMMARY:Modern Times in North Korea: Scenes from its Founding Years\, 1945-1950
DESCRIPTION:North Korea is often portrayed in mainstream media as a backward place\, a Stalinist relic without a history worth knowing. But during its founding years (1945-1950)\, North Korea experienced a radical social revolution when everyday life became the primary site of political struggle\, including quite deliberately a feminist agenda. With historical comparisons to revolutions in the early 20th century\, Suzy Kim introduces her recent book through rarely seen archival photos\, situating the North Korean revolution within the broader history of modernity.  \nSuzy Kim is Assistant Professor in the Department of Asian Languages & Cultures at Rutgers University. She received her Ph.D. in History from the University of Chicago. Her book Everyday Life in the North Korean Revolution\, 1945-1950 was published by Cornell University Press in 2013. Her teaching and research interests focus on modern Korean history with particular attention to social and cultural history\, gender studies\, oral history\, and social theory.

SUMMARY:Promoting Accountability for Human Rights Violations - Forging Effective and Efficient Litigation of International Atrocity Crim
DESCRIPTION:6-7:30 PM \nKeynote address by the President of the ICC\, Judge Sang-Hyun Song (South Korea) followed by a panel discussion \n7:30-8:30 PM \nNetworking reception with light refreshments hosted by the Municipality of The Hague\, International City of Peace\, Justice & Security \nRSVP – was-jbz@minbuza.nl \nThe event will focus on the critical importance of international criminal justice to the larger human rights movement\, including the prevention of mass human rights abuses through accountability. To best deter future mass human rights abuses and provide an important measure of justice to victims of such horrific crimes\, it is critical that the international criminal justice system is as swift and effective as it can possibly be. If cases are too long\, too distant\, or too ineffectual\, they are too readily dismissed by affected communities as well as by the perpetrators of such atrocities. This event will address both the effectiveness and efficiency of work by the ICC as an institution and complementarity proceedings by discussing items that bind the two together: the practical legal work necessary to do these cases well\, and the similar as well as different types of support each needs.

SUMMARY:Human Rights Day
DESCRIPTION:2014 Theme: Human Rights 365\n\n“I call on States to honour their obligation to protect human rights every day of the year. I call on people to hold their governments to account. “ \nUN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon \n\n\nThe UN General Assembly proclaimed 10 December as Human Rights Day in 1950\, to bring to the attention ‘of the peoples of the world’ the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as the common standard of achievement for all peoples and all nations. \nThis year’s slogan\, Human Rights 365\, encompasses the idea that every day is Human Rights Day. It celebrates the fundamental proposition in the Universal Declaration that each one of us\, everywhere\, at all times is entitled to the full range of human rights\, that human rights belong equally to each of us and bind us together as a global community with the same ideals and values.

SUMMARY:Human Rights Before Carter
DESCRIPTION:Washington History Seminar Historical Perspectives on International and National Affairs \nHuman Rights Before Carter \nSarah B. Snyder AMERICAN UNIVERSITY \nUnderlying much of the writing on United States foreign relations is the conviction that human rights were of limited consequence in policymaking during the 1960s and the early 1970s.  Sarah B. Snyder's current research\, however\, shows that efforts to emphasize human rights began in the 1960s\, driven by nonstate and lower-level actors and facilitating the issue’s later prominence due to the development of the networks and tactics critical to greater institutionalization of human rights in these years.  \nSarah B. Snyder is an assistant professor at American University’s School of International Service.  She is the author of Human Rights Activism and the End of the Cold War: A Transnational History of the Helsinki Network (2011) as well as articles on the Cold War\, human rights activism\, and United States human rights policy in Diplomatic History\, Cold War History\, and Human Rights Quarterly.  \nMonday December 8\, 2014 4:00 p.m.  Woodrow Wilson Center\, 6th Floor Moynihan Board Room Ronald Reagan Building\, Federal Triangle Metro Stop \n \n \n \n\nLOCATION: \n\n6th Floor\, Woodrow Wilson Center\n \nEvent Coordinator: Maria-Stella Gatzoulis\, (202) 691-4188

We worked with Joo Yang\, Yeonmi Park\, and Joseph Kim to produce a personal\, dynamic and engaging multimedia presentation. \nJoo Yang worked making taffy\, sweet rice drinks\, and alcohol to sell in the Jangmadang before she escaped North Korea. Since resettling\, she's enrolled in college and participates in the popular South Korean talent and talk show\, “Now on My Way to Meet You\,” which aims to bridge the gap between North and South Koreans. \nYeonmi Park bought and sold products in the Jangmadang. Wanting to make money on her own\, she even bribed an orchard guard so she could get some fruit to sell. Now in South Korea\, she studies police administration at Dongguk University and speaks around the world about the challenges that the North Korean people face. \nJoseph Kim escaped North Korea after living on the streets as an orphan. Since resettling in the United States\, Joseph graduated high school and started college. Last year\, he spoke from the TED stage\, sharing his story of hope with the world. \nThis is a unique chance to hear directly from North Koreans (through videos that address the audience) about life inside North Korea and what we can do to help. \nYou will gain a better understanding of the challenges the people face and the ways they are overcoming them from some of the most amazing North Koreans we know. Our North Korean friends will share incredible insight\, hope\, and inspiration. \n\n\nEvents can be tailored to meet your needs\, but generally look like this: \n\n\n30-minute\, live\, multimedia presentation given by LiNK Nomads (our traveling representatives). \n\n\n10-minute Q&A \n\n\nInformation and involvement booth to carry on the conversation after the presentation. \n\n\nThrough 13 North American tours and over 4\,000 events\, we have reached over 300\,000 people at schools\, places of worship\, community groups\, and even coffee shops.
