‘Rights in Crisis’, is a new RightsUp series from the Oxford Human Rights Hub in collaboration with the Oxford India Centre for Sustainable Development.

The series will feature topics on human rights and related issues in India with experts sharing their insights.

In our second episode for this series, Prof. Anup Surendranath and Prof. Jon Yorke, moderated by Dr Aradhana Cherupara Vadekkethil, critically assess the legal, moral and procedural dimensions of capital punishment and its broader human rights implications.

At a time when judicial scrutiny of capital punishment in India is intensifying, and global conversations on justice and state power are shifting, this discussion offers timely insights into the ethical and constitutional questions surrounding the death penalty.
