Human Right

Introduction

Since the end of the Cold War? the discourse of human rights has been spreading increasingly in the whole world. This movement actually started after the end of World War II? but it has been growing on a larger scale in the last few decades. The reason that lies behind this human rights controversy is the occurrence of various violations to “The Universal Declaration of Human Rights”. The Universal Declaration? proclaimed by the General Assembly of the United Nations in 1948? stated that “recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is the foundation of freedom? justice and peace in the world”. Yet? after proclaiming this declaration? that was supposed to be acknowledged by all countries? countless violations occurred and are still happening till this day. This proves that human rights can never be “universal” (Kincaid? 1988). It is almost impossible to obtain a real consensus on moral statements from the whole world. In other words? we cannot simply transform morals that diverge worldwide into written ethics and assume they can be accepted by everyone. The world superpowers? mainly the United States and France? who started the human rights movement from the very beginning? were aware of this fact. Despite their awareness? they did so to serve their own benefits.

Human Rights and The world

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights were made for every living human in this world to follow and obey. These rights originated after WW2 because they didn't want such an inhumanity to occur again. By the world agreeing to this declaration it is almost sure the lives of so many people weren't be lost again for an unnecessary reason. The main purpose of these rights are to enforce balanced rights of all people. Making sure that all humans have the right to freedom? justice and peace in this world. Not only to have these rights but to be able to enjoy the rights with out any fear(Kincaid? 1988).

These rights were a good idea for the whole world to follow. The world needs something to make sure that everyone is being treated fairly? and with respect. Even though the poorer countries are having problems to enforce some of these rights at least they are there. One day these rights shall be enforced more strongly on those countries? making their life easier for them.

These rights are a good way for all nations to develop a friendly relationship. By all the nations being friendly to each other? more respect is gained. These rights have also helped some countries lose hatred between each other. Which means it will be less problems for all. As well as that it could reduce the number of wars and maybe increase the number of world events.
