Dignity鈥檚 Role and Meaning in Gay Rights Cases: A Conversation with Yuvraj Joshi
In a lunchtime conversation hosted by the Outlaw McGill student club, Yuvraj Joshi will speak about dignity鈥檚 role and meaning in gay rights cases.
The concept of dignity has featured prominently in lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) rights jurisprudence around the globe. It is important that jurists understand the particularities of dignity鈥檚 meaning in different contexts. Yuvraj will discuss key LGB rights decisions from Canada, India, and the United States.
Nous allons explorer les racines constitutionnelles et sociales de certaines litiges autour de la dignit茅 des personnes LGB, et les diff茅rentes nuances de ce terme dans la jurisprudence de ces pays.
