The concept of Human rights came in to existence in the year 1948 with the Universal declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). The main motto of establishing Human Rights was to provide a significant stricture for a code world wide with mutual agreement.
However, the following and consent of the Human Rights code and rules were not as easy as the establishment. The United Nations have to under go a lot while betting the whole Human Rights concept accepted universally.
First, the initial period of the United Nations was subdued by the effect of the famous bifurcation of communist and western ideas related to the Human Rights. Both the sides promote the actual Universality idea of Human Rights.
The main debate was focused primarily on the specific rights to be give importance in conjunction with many of the Universal instrument. Political, social and economic rights were among the prime focus of the debate.
With the advent of 1960s, the world saw a significant number of states belonging to the ‘third–world’ that did not have any trace of existence in the year 1948 when UDHR was established. With the introduction of these third world states, there were a lot of debates on the fact whether the third world states require to abide by the covenants adopted prior to these states achieved independence and joined hands with the United States.
Fortunately there was a consensus on Human Rights Universality. However, there was a hurdle in this new concept that came in to existence in the year 1979.This was a period of ‘cultural relativism’ that resulted in the Iran’s famous Islamic revolution.
The most important part of the discussion included the importance of allowing national legislation come in to an agreement with the standards of universal Human Rights known as the ‘international Bill of Human Rights’ that included UDHR, the covenant on civil and political Rights, the international covenant of Economic and the Social and cultural Rights. Most state that did not come in to conformity with the Human Rights standards made some modifications in their legislation.
However, the only problem with such liberation acts is that these can be easily become null and void via any deliberate attempt made to raise confusion with the universal issues revolving around Human Rights.
One of the best examples of this can be seen in UNESCO proclaimed ‘Universal Islamic Declaration of Human Rights’ in the year 1981 and thereafter the ‘Cairo Declamation of Human Right’ in 1990. This was declared by the 19th Islamic Conference foreign ministers form the forty five OIC countries.
Thereafter there were a lot of other declarations as mentioned below:
1. The Human Rights secular interpretation of the Judeo Christian tradition in 1981 not to be implemented by Muslims
2. The compilation of international instruments in 1998
3. Seminar on Islamic perspectives on UDHR in 1998.
When it comes to the global relations and perspective, the issues related to Human Rights are interpreted as the moral and religions issues.
However, the Human Rights set up by the United Nations Solely aims towards global right many an interment to fight many Human vices.
