Research Abstract |
This project examines the development of human rights in the global historical context in order to demonstrate the process by which human rights came to be conceived of as a universal principle, even in the face of powerful criticism from many contrasting perspectives, for example cultural relativism. Focusing on the various challenges that the concept of human rights has encountered in the process of its evolution, this project reveals that the two decades between two world wars playd a vital part in the process of this evolution.
