It is a comparatively modern achievement and a gift from those who were fighting and died for us to have a privilege of human rights. For example, this is a privilege of mine to be able to write these words and your privilege … Continue reading Preserving and furthering human rights as an obligation and a tribute to everyone who has fought for what we have today

I study human rights because human rights allow everyone to be him- or herself

Inimõigused ja ideoloogiad
Sven Anton Inimõigused ei ole ole seotud ühegi kindla ideoloogiaga, kuid peaksid olema iga legitiimse ideoloogia osa. Väärtustena moodustavad inimõigused koos traditsioonide ja kultuurilise enesemääratlusega ühiskonna alusmüüri. Tõigale, et inimõigusi ei saa alahinnata, annab kinnitust ka ajalugu, kus õiguste eest seistes on lausa valitsejaid kukutatud. Kindlasti ei ole minu eesmärgiks mässu õhutada, vaid pigemini soovin … Continue reading Inimõigused ja ideoloogiad

Miks peaks igaüks olema inimõiguslane?
Mariann Rikka Inimõigused – universaalsed, võõrandamatud, vastastikku sõltuvad ja seetõttu võrdselt olulised – õigused, mis kuuluvad igale inimesele sünnilt. Kuuluvad sünnilt, see tähendab tulenevad lihtsast inimeseks olemise faktist, inimväärikuse kandmisest ja selle tagamise vajadusest. Sest ajalugu on näidanud, et inimene võib teha teisele inimesele nii, et inimväärikusest ei jää alles midagi – ei ohvritel ega … Continue reading Miks peaks igaüks olema inimõiguslane?
