Human Rights in the Context of Cultural Diversity

Emilian Ciongaru

Abstract


The human rights understood in the sense of fundamental inalienable rights are therefore considered as universal – they apply to everything and egalitarian – they are the same for all and they may exist in two ways: as natural or legal rights, both in the national and international legislation. The human rights doctrine in the international practice within the international law, the global and regional institutions, in the state policies and the activities of non-governmental organizations was a corner stone of public policies from all over the world regardless of peoples’ cultures. At world level, cultural diversity which should manage the ethnic-cultural communities living on the territory of a state often contributes, in fact, to the separation and not to the reunion of peoples, the ideological and political factors acting rather as division factors whereas the affective spiritual connection exists only between the states having deep similarities. For this purpose, serving justice having as a goal the preservation of human rights is also affected since it relies on the social feelings of humanity.
