The Rights Of Human Rights

Sadly, that's the harsh reality for many asylum seekers, seeking refuge in Australia as they are arbitrarily detained. Good morning or afternoon. It has been a profound honour to be invited to address you about the eloquently breach of basic human rights asylum seeker face while being detained in our shores. Mandatory detention should be abolished as it causes indiscriminate health risk. Instead, the Australia government should allow asylum seekers to settle into the community. We should be viewing asylum seekers as a humanitarian issue instead of a political one.

Australia, among many places, has legal restrictions and conventions in reference to the captivity and treatment of asylum seekers. These are seen through the ‘1951 Refugee Convention’ and it’s 1967 protocol. Legal guidelines are also seen in significant human rights treaties.

Recently, concerns have been raised by political figures and the people of Australia regarding the ‘abysmal treatment’ of asylum seekers (Claire Mallinson, 2015). The violations of their human rights in regards to the conditions they are forced to live in inside detention centers show that these centres do not operate within the humanitarian requirements Australia has agreed to abide by. The current process that handles the arrival and subsequent treatment of asylum seekers does not allow the migratory system to properly address the complications that the present circumstances impose. The Universal Declaration Human Rights (1948) (UDHR) and the United Nations 1951 Refugee Convention were signed by Australia to recognize its support of these

The asylum seeker “debate” is a contentious topic in Australian media. According to The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, it is considered an inherent right for every individual worldwide, “to seek and to enjoy in other countries asylum from persecution” (United Nations, 2014). Article 14 is listed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which is accepted by many nations as the international standard of basic human rights and liberties. This report will assess the extent of Australia’s violation of these international standards, and consider their national approach to the treatment of refugees and individuals seeking asylum. It will provide evidence to expose the inconsistencies in Australia’s human rights commitments under international

I believe that any concept of human rights should include the right for individuals to think as they choose, the right for people to vote for their national leaders, and the right for people to have food and water to sustain themselves. Without these basic rights, I do not believe that it is possible for people to truly be free. However, with these rights at the top of the list of basic human rights, I believe that it is possible to achieve a world society in which all people are free and live in

Human rights are universal rights that we are entitled to. It is a freedom that is guaranteed based on the principle of respect for an individual. As mentioned in the preamble of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, human rights are a “recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all member of the human family is the foundation of freedom, justice, and peace in the world” (Kent, page 80). When asked what our rights are, we tend to get different answers and meanings. Some people recite the rights that they know; but let’s face it, not everyone knows all of the rights that they truly have. The rights we have consist of many things such as the right of having an adequate food supply. The right to

It is clear that in China there is certainly a lack in the belief of what constitutes proper ethics regarding the treatment and freedom of citizens is. The government of China is a one party system meaning that only one political organization exists, and it is the communist party. The communist viewpoint is that society should be classless, everything should be communal in the sense there is no private ownership, and the leaders of the party are to enforce communist policies and put new ones in place in order to lean the society towards an overall goal of both betterment and equality. This does not sound like the way China is operated now. Frequently, vast and numerous cases of basic human rights violations pertaining to freedom, and a plethora of other categories are brought to the attention of the world. Even though China signed the UN’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) outlining what rights and fundamental freedoms every person is inarguably entitled, China often violates these rights and the government claims that in doing so “social stability” is maintained. The acceptance of, and participation in such violations by the Chinese government makes it apparent that the best interests of the communist party, and economic prosperity are held in higher regard than human rights. Throughout the following dissertation, human rights violations in China will be explored and expanded upon. In addition these violations will be

Everyone agrees that human rights are important, even people who do not think that they are effectively enforced. History has been building up to having human rights for centuries now all over the world, conflicts and rebellions can almost always be traced back to the violation of rights. Even biblically with Moses delivering Israel and freeing the Jewish people from Egyptian enslavement, people felt that they were entitled as human beings to more than what they were getting. The language did not exist yet, but the principles were emerging. This essay will look at how people might perceive human rights, as they currently are, as a defeat of the collective and whether human rights can be successfully utilised as a way to protect collectives and their human rights. The first thing to do is look at how current human rights laws, specifically international ones, are individualistic and how group rights (or collective rights) differ. Moving on: how human rights can be seen as a defeat of the collective before looking at whether or not human rights can effectively be conceptualised as a protection for collectives. Eventually concluding that if groups are given rights, not instead of but alongside individual rights, society will be a lot more peaceful and minorities will be better protected.

“America did not invent human rights. In a very real sense human rights invented America”-Jimmy Carter. America is not a unique culture, but variety of ideas put it together. As the matter of fact, the United States of America has adopted a lot of knowledge, ideas, habits, and fashions throughout its development. Back in days, rights were given to white Americans, but refute to other ethnic groups that live in the country. Previously, white people were well educated. Due to this reason, they were considered the upper class and get treated differently. Definitely, this was a huge problem in history that caused many conflicts within the nation. Today, the government is upsetting to figure out ways to deal with this obstacle. In the meantime, most states have been working on this particular problem to solve prejudice against other ethnic groups. The United States has improved race relation by understand more of human rights and tolerate ways to treat people the way human beings deserved to be treated; however, there are many tools that give out false information that raise the problem to an intense point.

What can be considered as a human right? As quoted “Human rights are moral rights possessed by all human beings simply in virtue of their humanity.” Human rights are entitled to all human beings disregarding everything that divides and splits one human being from another. Things like religion and nationality can’t take away ones right to be considered a human.

What are human rights? Human rights are the fundamental rights and freedoms that belong to all people. They belong to every single one of us and they are universal, inalienable, indivisible and interdependent. The evolution of human rights goes back to that of the Enlightenment. One of the first published and signed documentations of human rights around the world were the United States and French Declarations of Independence. Throughout history there have been many leaps in the pursuit of equal human rights across the world, but there have also been many setbacks. Although Canada is one of the most equal, accepting and free countries in the world, things have not always been that way. Canadian government has created many

This essay will argue that human rights law is not completely of no assistance in dealing with homelessness. However, it will discuss its deficiencies in dealing with homelessness. It will focus on how the human Rights law influences decision making policies in protecting and preventing new range of homelessness, this will be discussed from the United Nations perspectives. It will also emphasize on the provisions and the influence of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) on the domestic law in relation to the issue of homelessness, likewise the emergence of the Human Rights Act 1998 (HRA), its effect in dealing with homelessness in the United Kingdom, with reference to the case law. This paper will also compare and elaborate on the effect of the anti-squatter legislation ‘Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012, (LASPO)’ to the Criminal law Act 1977. Moreover, it will analyse the effect of criminalisation of the squatters in our society and its contradiction to Human Rights law. The effect of the Human Rights law on public authorities will be discussed in relation to International Human Rights perspectives, i.e. the intervention of the United Nations in protecting the anti-homelessness legislations in various countries, as we see in United Kingdom, Australia and Hungary. It will finally conclude by acknowledge the facts that, although the Human Rights law in some aspects curtailed to a certain degree the escalation of homelessness by protecting

America has been known to be a nation of the people for the people by the people, but there are individuals may argue a different point. There are those who would claim this country was founded it was founded by and for whit Europeans, people fled a broken system, but subsequently built a flawed system of their own. Our forefathers uprooted themselves and others in order to build the country we live in today. The question quickly becomes a matter of which is it? Upon close examination I believe it shall become quite clear that this country was founded with a certain interest in mind. Indeed, African Americans and the aboriginals of this land did not find, rather this nation was built on their backs and their sweat. This nation nor was not found with their benefit in mind. Their European counterparts cared for only their own existence, and would thrive regardless the cost. Unfortunately, these minorities are still looked down upon today. By whites castigating them as black or even by stereotyping themselves, it does still matter today if you are black or white. The following will prove America’s aggressive view on the racial minority during her conception to now.
