Research Abstract |
In the Japanese conception of "human rights", the western notion of political and civil liberties against the state is limited in the legal circles. More widely held is the understanding that "human rights" are the rights of minorities whose justifiable "entitlements" are violated and thereby their human "dignity" is denied. Due to such a conception, women's rights are not so easily recognized as human rights, while the claims of the disabled people are more easily recognized as such.
