Amartya Sen - Critique of Asian Values Debate - Human Rights - For UPSC PSIR and UGC NET JRF

Welcome to Saar Concepts In this video we have discussed Amartya Sen's critique of Asian Values debate. Amartya Sen wrote an article in 1997 where he vehemently opposed the idea of one single unified Eastern or Asian Tradition. He argued that Asia does not have one single tradition which can unanimously be called Asian Values, there are multiple strands of thoughts present in Asia where all can be regarded as an intellectual tradition in their own right. Understanding Amartya Sen in the context of human rights is very important.
