Abstract

Human rights were only recognized as a worldwide value after World War II. From then on, they began to set the direction for the further evolution of political systems and international law. They are a discipline somewhere between philosophy, in particular ethics, various branches of law and political sciences. Human rights, as one of the relatively young terms appearing in the dictionary of politics and societies, are a unique social and political value, as well as a criterion for assessing the activity of authorities, the constitution and other legal provisions. Recently, they have also become an important element of international politics and a program objective for governments. The aim of this study is to analyze human rights issues in the context of their deep and multidimensional crisis, their violations, politicization and ideologization, because despite the collected, written and accepted by almost all countries human rights, gross violations of them still take place, which in this century is a contradiction of this. what was supposed to be a guarantee of peace in the world, and above all, which becomes a negation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights itself.
