Human Rights

Human Rights are the fundamental freedoms that a person has for the simple fact of being born, without which one cannot live as such. The United Nations General Assembly created Human Rights in the year 1948. In total, we human beings have 30 rights. Characteristics of Human Rights All Human Rights share the same characteristics:

  1. They are universal: All human beings, without distinction, have equal Human Rights.
  2. Undeniable: Human Rights are out of the democratic debate. Therefore, they cannot get altered by the States.
  3. Inalienable: Human Rights cannot be renounced, ignored, or unknown by people and governments. Additionally, no human being can get forced to quit their Rights.
  4. Imprescriptible: Human Rights do not lose validity since they exercise permanently.
  5. Indivisible: All Human Rights have the same importance and hierarchy. They form a set of rights that guarantee the fundamental freedoms of individuals.
  6. Interdependent: Human Rights are related to each other and depend on the fulfillment of all Rights for its operation.
Human Rights Categories Human Rights can get grouped according to their characteristics or nature. Currently, there are five different categories of Human Rights:
  1. Civil Rights: They are those Human Rights related to the daily life of the individual.
  2. Political Rights: These are the Rights that promote and guarantee the participation of citizens in the political decision-making of the countries.
  3. Economic Rights: These are Human Rights that promote the participation of individuals in economic, labor, and professional activities.
  4. Social Rights: These are Human Rights that promote welfare and social security.
  5. Cultural Rights: It is the Rights that promote the participation of the individual in the benefits of the cultural life of the community and at the national level.
  Ten things about human rights:
  1. Human rights apply equally to all people.
 
  1. Human rights are paramount. Nobody can take it away from you. If a government does, it violates your rights and is wrong.
 
  1. Human rights are not for Sunday speeches, but emergencies. When critical situations arise, compliance is particularly important.
 
  1. The laws of the individual states must comply with human rights. Many countries, including Germany, have expressly recognized this through international treaties. Human rights are, therefore, enforceable.
 
  1. An essential transcript of human rights is the "Universal Declaration of Human Rights" adopted by the UN General Assembly in 1948. There had been numerous efforts to maintain the universal human rights of people regardless of the prevailing laws.
And after that, several essential contracts specified many of the rights set out in the "General Declaration." Also, all modern constitutions, such as the German Basic Law, contain "human rights."
  1. There are several types of human rights: freedoms (or "civil rights"), social rights ("rights of entitlement"), and participation rights ("participation"). We also know today that human rights cannot get realized without respect for the rights of nature.
 
  1. The struggle for freedom rights has a long tradition in the history of Europe. It took centuries to recognize that all people have freedoms against the prince (or the state) that cannot get deprived of their rights (human rights as "natural rights").
The American Declaration of Independence, the French Revolution, and the Basic Law of the Federal Republic of Germany are based on this idea. Freedom rights in themselves are very easy to fulfill: the government does not circumcise them. However, the legal system must also provide for and make it possible for everyone to be able to sue them. In this respect, they are also rights of claim.
  1. It is more difficult with economic and social rights, such as the right to work. Here it may be that there is no immediate possibility to meet all requirements. The overall policy of states must be to guarantee social human rights. Last but not least, it is about giving everyone the same opportunities to use the available opportunities. In this respect, they are also freedom rights.
 
  1. All human rights must be respected by the country, protected against attacks, and fulfilled to the best of our ability. Participation rights are a logical consequence of other human rights. Our rights guarantee that if we can ensure - through elections and votes or other forms of participation - that nobody gains power over and against us.
  Human rights, like all rights, also mean obligations. Just as we insist on our rights, we have to respect those of others. By working for the human rights of all people, we are protecting our human rights. A government that violates the human rights of people is answerable to the UN. So if we allow the rights of others - for example, refugees - to get broken, then we are also endangering our human rights.
