Human rights have been defined by the United Nations as rights inherent to all human beings, regardless of race, sex, nationality, ethnicity, language, religion, or any other status. Human rights include to right to life and liberty, freedom from slavery and torture, freedom of expression, the right to work and education and others. Everyone is entitled to these rights without discrimination.
Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, whatever our nationality, place of residence, sex, national or ethnic origin, color, religion, language, or any other status. We are all equally entitled to our human rights without discrimination. These rights are all interrelated, interdependent and indivisible.

The Human Rights and their deficiencies book 6Miguel Cano
Human rights, despite being an example of values accepted almost universally, seem incomplete and insufficient, since, by placing exclusively the emphasis on individual rights, they relegate to the background the responsibilities of people towards others.
Therefore, human rights are difficult to accept by many of the traditional Eastern cultures that emphasize, instead, family and community duties.
Thus, in order to achieve the desired goal of world peace, a global intercultural and interreligious consensus should be sought in a shared core values that harmonize traditional cultural values with modern democratic ideals.

Human Rights /
Humans as Political Beings
Lecture 2.4
Natural Rights, Civil Rights, Human Rights
So far, in this unit of the course, the notion of
“rights” has come up several times. Both Hobbes,
Locke, and Mills discuss rights in some way.
As you may recall, Hobbes defines right as a type of
liberty, the freedom to do something without
impediment. Both Hobbes and Locke believe that
humans have natural rights, that is inherent
freedoms that they are endowed with by nature. In
other words, because humans and the world are
they way they are, humans come with pre-given
rights. For Hobbes the principle right held by
humans was to do whatever it takes to survive. For
Locke it was to defend one’s property (including
one’s life).
For Hobbes, when humans enter a social contract
and form a government with laws, they give up
their natural rights. For Locke, the institution of
government provides a way of guaranteeing one’s
natural rights by codifying those rights into law. When
a sovereign power establishes rights for its citizens
and laws for protecting those rights, we get civil
rights.
Natural rights apply in the state of nature while civil
rights apply in civilization. Human rights refer to
those rights which humans hold simply because they
are human. Such rights are closer in kind to natural
rights, but are often reflected in civil rights.
The notion of human rights gets invoked frequently in
discussions of violations of human dignity and ethics.
But where do human rights come from? Are they
real? Who guarantees them? How effective are
they in protecting vulnerable people? Do
other-than-human beings have rights, too?
Amartya Sen, 1933 -
Sen was born in West Bengal India in 1933. He
received is B.A., M.A., and Ph.D. in Economics at
Trinity College in Cambridge, England. His research
has included topics such as social choice theory,
economic theory, ethics and political philosophy,
welfare economics, theory of measurement,
decision theory, development economics, public
health, and gender studies. His interest in global
welfare and human rights was partly inspired by his
experience of witnessing famine in India.
Sen has served on various economic advisory
boards including the American Economic
Association. He has also received numerous awards
for his work, the most prestigious of which was the
Nobel Prize in economics.
Sen currently teaches at Harvard University.

Great Challenges for World Peace book 5Miguel Cano
In this book we analyze the great challenges that humanity would have to overcome if we want to achieve a stable and lasting peace for the new millennium.
A first big problem is to end hunger and poverty in the world and achieve a global equalization of wealth.
The second great challenge of our days is to try to solve the problem of moral degradation and widespread corruption at all levels of society.
A third major challenge is to prevent the wars and conflicts between nations, ethnic groups or cultures that caused such disastrous humanitarian consequences in the twentieth century, as well as to solve the serious problem of international terrorism.
In this book, as summary and conclusion, we will list a number of basic and fundamental assertions that could be elevated to the category of universal ethical principles.
These ethical principles could help to resolve cultural, religious, nationalist or political conflicts between nations, as well as the problems of world hunger, corruption of ruling elites, social injustices and evils, and moral degradation of families and individuals.
They could also serve to regulate harmonious and peaceful coexistence between individuals, families, communities, nations and civilizations that ultimately leads to a stable and lasting world peace

CAPABILITIES AND HUMAN RIGHTS
Martha C. Nussbaum*
INTRODUCTION
W HEN governments and international agencies talk about peo-
ple's basic political and economic entitlements, they regularly
use the language of rights. When constitutions are written in the mod-
em era, and their framers wish to identify a group of particularly ur-
gent interests that deserve special protection, once again it is the
language of rights that is regularly preferred.
The language of rights has a moral resonance that makes it hard to
avoid in contemporary political discourse. But it is certainly not on
account of its theoretical and conceptual clarity that it has been pre-
ferred. There are many different ways of thinking about what a right
is, and many different definitions of "human rights."' For example,
rights are often spoken of as entitlements that belong to all human
beings simply because they are human, or as especially urgent inter-
ests of human beings as human beings that deserve protection regard-
less of where people are situated.2 Within this tradition there are
differences. The dominant tradition has typically grounded rights in
the possession of rationality and language, thus implying that non-
human animals do not have them, and that mentally impaired humans
may not have them.3 Some philosophers have maintained that senti-
ence, instead, should be the basis of rights; thus, all animals would be
rights-bearers.4 In contrast to this entire group of natural-rights theo-
rists, there are also thinkers who treat all rights as artifacts of state
action.5 The latter position would seem to imply that there are no

The Fascinating World of Bats: Unveiling the Secrets of the Night
Bats, the mysterious creatures of the night, have long been a source of fascination and fear for humans. With their eerie squeaks and fluttering wings, they have captured our imagination and sparked our curiosity. Yet, beyond the myths and legends, bats are fascinating creatures that play a vital role in our ecosystem.
There are over 1,300 species of bats, ranging from the tiny Kitti's hog-nosed bat to the majestic flying foxes. These winged mammals are found in almost every corner of the globe, from the scorching deserts to the lush rainforests. Their diversity is a testament to their adaptability and resilience.
Bats are insectivores, feeding on a vast array of insects, from mosquitoes to beetles. A single bat can consume up to 1,200 insects in an hour, making them a crucial part of our pest control system. By preying on insects that damage crops, bats save the agricultural industry billions of dollars each year.
But bats are not just useful; they are also fascinating creatures. Their ability to fly in complete darkness, using echolocation to navigate and hunt, is a remarkable feat of evolution. They are also social animals, living in colonies and communicating with each other through a complex system of calls and body language.
Despite their importance, bats face numerous threats, from habitat destruction to climate change. Many species are endangered, and conservation efforts are necessary to protect these magnificent creatures.
In conclusion, bats are more than just creatures of the night; they are a vital part of our ecosystem, playing a crucial role in maintaining the balance of nature. By learning more about these fascinating animals, we can appreciate their importance and work to protect them for generations to come. So, let us embrace the beauty and mystery of bats, and celebrate their unique place in our world.
