The point of this essay is the observation of Human rights concerning some currents issues of International relations and social and political disorder; for example, in Tibet where it has been thought that the enforcement of some standards of Human rights would protect the Tibetans from the suffering which they endure and bring them closer to political independence. Countries such as Cuba and China draw attention from the international community on their practice and their lack of protection of Human rights, the dominant view being that these countries are abusers. However conceptually it is imperative to understand Human rights definition and protection. As other international and national events will demonstrate Human rights, while been notionally desirable, understood and seen as practically important; is consumed by a philosophical debate which pervades the literature on Human rights protection and promotion. This essay is thus concerned with assessing the various perspectives in this debate on Human rights and their implications for the promotion, protection, greater compliance and enforcement of Human rights and fundamental freedoms for all. It also seeks to highlight and discuss the increasing gaps between theory and practice of the indivisibility and universality of Human rights.
[...] Very famous among these are Amnesty International for example. This development is representative of the acceptance of such a thing as “Human rights”. At some levels it is adequate to conclude that we have all understood and have accepted the need for the existence of such a framework which tries to protect our existence as human beings. This is notionally introduced from a philosophical point by Hobbes who argues that the life of man is “nasty short and brutish”, given such an existence there is need to bring a social contract.

[...] The politics of international Human Rights Law The Essay Question The history of human rights is very much connected to the concerted efforts of the international community aimed at protection and promotion of human rights and to establish and strengthen international peace and rule of law. The ‘universal', ‘indivisible' ‘interdependent' and ‘inalienable' nature of human rights is at the epicenter of the United Nations approaches to the promotion and protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms for all. The International Bill of Rights have emphasized that the inclusion, recognition and realization of two categories of human rights such as civil and political rights and economic, social and cultural rights is the root of freedom, justice and peace in the world.

[...] In simplest terms, for these opponents, globalization undermines Human rights. Globalization, in this model, can have only negative social, political, and economic effects. In that view, people are more likely to enjoy their Human rights if they live in a locally, rather than globally-controlled environment[8]. Nevertheless, any optimism that we have about progress in the area of Human rights must immediately be tempered by recognition that there still is a wide gap between ideals and reality in regard to Human rights.

[...] Indivisibility essentially means that no right should take priority over another. It ensures that people and nations are not left without the economic, social, cultural, civil and political means to enable them to live in dignity. The other principle, Universality[5] is explained by Article 28 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, that: "Everyone is entitled to a social and international order in which the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration can be fully realized"[6]. In this view, the right to rights transcends cultural, political borders and time and space. [...]
[...] Concerning the issue of the indivisibility of Human rights, it is debated as Governments and international observers are often attentive to the abuse of political and civil rights but pay little or no attention to economic and social rights. The indivisibility of Human rights is therefore on trial here. By definition Human rights ensure the protection of social economic and political rights. In the case of genocides in Rwanda and Darfur a call for and the protection of Human rights was absent. [...]
