LESSON
HUMAN RIGHTS
DEFINITION;
•
Human Rights states that the human
being has universal natural rights, or
status, regardless of legal jurisdiction or
other localizing, such as ethnicity,
nationality, and sex.
Photo sourceoutlookafghanistan.net
•
Human Rights is defined as the supreme, inherent, and inalienable rights to life,
to dignity, and to self-development. It is talks about the issues in both areas of
civil and political rights and economic, social and cultural rights founded on
internationally accepted human rights obligations
•
Human rights refers to norms that aim to protect people from political, legal, and
social abuses according to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy
•
The United Nations (UN) defines human rights as universal and inalienable,
interdependent and indivisible, and equal and non-discriminatory.
BASIC RIGHTS
RIGHTS TO LIFE – It is a moral principle based on the belief that a human being
has the right to live and in a particular should not be killed by another human being.
One major issue that pro-life groups stress is abortions unfairness to the baby’s
Pro-life supporters say that it is murder because the babies have a heartbeat.
Pro-life activists say that if a criminal is convicted of murdering two people, if a
woman is pregnant, what is the difference if you have an abortion?
Photo source: Bing,net 2020
ABORTION ISSUES An issue of abortion is that of
mandatory notification and consent. Some believes
that a pregnant minor should not be allowed to abort
her pregnancy without the consent of a parent or
guardian. Likewise, some believe that consent of the
woman's husband or the child's biological father
should be required. Not only is it unfair to the unborn
child, but it could be unfair to the father who might
want to have the baby.
RIGHTS TO LIBERTY – discussed the right to be free,
human right(law)any basic right or freedom to which all
human beings are entitled and in whose exercise a
government may not interfere (including rights to life
and liberty as well as freedom of thoughts.
Photo source: Bing,net 2020
RIGHTS TO PROPERTY – this right refer to the theoretical
and legal ownership of specific property by individuals and
the ability to determine how such property is
used…Example in economics, property rights form the
basis for all market exchange, and the allocation of
property rights in a society affects the efficiency of resource
use

by a commitment to equality and diversity in our work.

VALUING
Once upon a time, there was an old wise woman in China. A lot of people sought
her wisdom. One day, a young boy tried to test the woman’s wisdom. He held a
small bird in his hand, behind his back, so the woman could not see it. He planned
to ask the wise woman if the bird was alive or dead if the wise woman would
answer that it was alive, he would squeeze and kill it to prove that she was wrong.
If the wise woman would say otherwise, he would release it to show that it was
alive.
He then asked the wise woman, “Is the bird in my hand alive or dead?”
The wise woman replied, “The bird in your hand? Only you can determine if
it is alive or dead.”
The recognition and protection of human rights are in your hands. Only YOU
can determine the answer. Since human rights are for all, we are all challenged to
determine the realization of our rights as citizen or as members of a community.
