Human rights
Human rights: the universal affirmation of each person's dignity before power.
Human rights are the legal crystallization of the dignity principle: universal, inalienable, and interdependent rights that recognize each person as a subject worthy of protection. From the 1948 Universal Declaration to the regional systems (Inter-American, European, African), human rights constitute the common moral language of contemporary democracy. Revista Conciencia Democrática publishes analysis and essays on their defense and violation.
