1. How many human rights are guaranteed, according to the
document? Thirty human rights are guaranteed. 2. According to the Universal Declaration, how should respect for human rights be promoted? Every person and organ of society must promote the human rights by educating and teaching by progressive measures to keep universal recognition and observance. 3. Which two articles of the Declaration do you think are the most important? Give reasons for your answer. Article 1- All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood. I believe this is important because it states that from the time a person is born, they are all free to the same rights as somebody else, which is a big deal in every citizens life. Article 18- Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance. This is a very important article because it states that everyone is allowed to believe the things that they want, which is a tremendous amount of freedom for society. People get to live peacefully with their differences, which makes it an important article.
4. Should a nations record on human rights be the major factor in determining the United States relationship with that nation? Explain your answer. I believe that it should be a factor in the relationship the United States has with that nation. This is because the United States works and believes truly in everyone have their own freedom. If we do not believe in something that the other nation is doing, it shouldnt be right that we have a good relationship and ignore what theyre doing, we should try to make it right or no longer communicate with that country/nation.
