Research Abstract

This project was basically carried out in the line of the initial plan. However, the initial plan as a hole has not necessarily been implemented. The research results can be summarized mainly in the following four items.
First, the concept of "human rights" (hereinafter cited as "concept") was critically examined with due regard to the cultural relativism. The tentative conclusion is that even if the cultural variety of human nature not only permits but requires significant allowance for cross-cultural variations in human rights, the universality of the concept can not be denied.
Second, the concept was reviewed in connection with peace and development as a preparatory work seeking for a common concept.
Third, the investigator examined the concept in the context of the majority-minority relationship in a society. He did this work focusing on the human rights conditions in the Asian region, especially on the situation of the indigenous population in the region.
Finally, he studied the concept in the context of individual-collective human rights with reference to the Draft Pacific Charter of Human Rights prepared by the LAWASIA.
