    Our rights as a civilization has grown ever since its first ideas of rights. In the eighteenth century, many of today's modern rights were not even thought of. People like as the enlightenment philosophers such John Locke, Adam Smith, Voltaire and May Wollstonecraft were the ones to start questioning why everyone should be capable of having the same rights. Ideas such as the rights of men, how the people should be the ones to choose for the economy, the right to choose the religion you want, and equality for women were the main ideas that Locke, Smith, Voltaire, and Wollstonecraft had stood for.…

    This essay will begin by arguing that the responsibility to protect concept (hereafter R2P) is political in nature, not legal. The is mainly due to the lack of legal liability for the main body responsible for carrying out the duties of R2P, the Security Council, if it fails in those duties. Furthermore, the Security Council is not subject judicial review of actions that it does take. Critics of the concept argue that it can be used as a legitimate justification for states with imperialist intentions, which would make R2P a significantly dangerous tool in international relations. However, in reality R2P’s significance is not that great. The power to authorise military intervention remains with the Security Council, which is…

    The European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (hereafter referred to as “ECHR”) sets out rights and freedoms for the members of Council of Europe and consists of 59 articles.[1] Article 2 -The Right to Life[2] is considered as a very important right out of all the rights. For example, in the case, Pretty v. the United Kingdom[3], the court stated that without life, one cannot enjoy any other rights or freedoms set out in the ECHR. The Right invokes both positive and negative obligations on the part of a member state. This essay would discuss such obligations and it’s limitations with reference to case law from the European Court of Human Rights( hereafter referred to as ECtHR).…

    War Crimes

    • 12 Pages

    “No crime without law”, is a statement that was agreed upon for every power- wielding country across the globe1. Any discretion would normally result in the United Nations International Court of Justice to bring down the iron fist and resolve the situation in any way that they feel fit. Recently, there has been another method to solve disagreements throughout the world, not with petty crimes, but war crimes. War crimes are offenses that undermine the previously amended laws and were believed to be served and handled by the offending country2. Due to the polemical ideas of participating countries, war crimes have been debated with whether or not these crimes should be resolved by an international court. While 120 countries have signed and gave the ICC- International Criminal Court- control over war crimes within their countries with the belief that the crimes will not go unpunished, several other nations have repeatedly denied the ICC access to govern their crimes due to the risk of losing sovereignty.…

    Human Rights Theory

    In this paper, I will make a number of arguments against the human right to social and economic welfare. In particular, I will examine Henry Shue 's defense of subsistence and illustrate why I find his reasoning ineffective. The first point I will make in this paper is that socio-economic welfare rights cannot be human rights because they are not universal. Thereafter, I will argue against two thoughts proposed by Henry Shue in Basic Rights: Subsistence, Affluence and U.S. Foreign Policy. I will first argue, in direct contradiction to Shue, that human rights are only negative, and that subsistence rights are inherently positive; therefore subsistence rights cannot be human rights. Finally, I will argue the idea that socio-economic welfare programs are not practical with respect to the scarcity of resources.…
