1 INTRODUCTION

The human rights are instrumental conditions that allow the person to perform.

All states have ratified at least one, and 80 per cent of them four or more of the main
human rights treaties reflecting the consent of the member states to establish legal
obligations that they undertake to fulfill, and giving the concept of universality a
concrete expression.

When we talk about the ¨right¨ word, we emphasize a power or faculty to act, a
permission to act in a certain sense or to demand the conduct of another subject.

Much has to do human rights with democracy. The states where they are recognized,
guardianship and promotes are democratic. And those who do not recognize them are
non-democratic, or authoritarian or totalitarian.

So that these human rights can be realized, and recognized in a real realm, the state
must be in a democracy.

4.2 Importance of the human rights

The importance of the human rights movement is that it tells people that one cannot
call a society a good and a just society until all its populations enjoy these human
rights. Besides, the human rights laws aim at eliminating unjust discriminations
against any human being.

The concept of human rights is based on the principle of human solidarity,

cooperation and development and access of all to the common heritage of humankind.

4.3 The core international human rights instruments and their monitoring
bodies

There are 9 core international human rights instruments has established a committee
of experts to monitor implementation of the treaty provisions by its States parties.

In contrast some of the treaties are supplemented by optional protocols dealing with
specific concerns whereas the optional protocol to the convention against torture
establishes a committee of experts.
 6

Like:

ICERD International Convention On The Elimination Of All Form Of Racial

Discrimination

ICCPR International Covenant On Civil And Political Rights

ICESCR International Covenant On Economic, Social And Cultural Rights

CEDAW Convention on the elimination of all forms of discrimination against

women

CAT Convention against torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading

treatment or punishment

4.4 Social and economics human rights

Economic and social rights guarantee that every person be afforded conditions under
which they are able to meet their needs.

Include:

1 The Right To Health

2 The Right To Education

3 The Right To Food

The second type of rights are economics and
4 The Right To Housing social rights. The rights included in this group are
also very important.
5 The Right To Social Security

6 The Right To Work

 7

4.5 Types of humans rights

*Civil and political rights

This includes the right to participate fully in government, the individual ´´liberties´´
and freedom of public
expressions, etc. (like the
bill of rights)

The United States was

founded on the idea that all
people can come to a new
land and be free to live,
work and pursue happiness
in the way they see fit.

The authors of the

constitution therefore crated
the Bill of Rights, which, along with the amendments that followed, give us civil
liberties which form the basis of our civil rights law as it exists nowadays.

*Social and economics rights

Economic rights deal with the sphere of humans beings working, producing and
servicing.

Social rights deal with standard of living and quality of life for all persons, including
those not participating in economic actvities.

The Universal Declaration Of Human Rights recognises a number of economic,

social and cultural rights and the international covenand on economic, social and
cultural rights(ICECR) it is the primary international legal source of economic, social
and cultural rights.
 8

In the same way the convention on the rights of the child and the convention on the
elimination of all forms of discriminations against women recognises and protecs
many of the economic, social and cultural rights recognised in the ICESCR in relation
to children and women.

*Cultural rights

Cultural rights are rights related to art and culture, both understood in a large sense.
Therefore the objetive of these rights is to guaranted that people and communities
have an access to culture and they can participate in the culture of their election.
Cultural rights are human rights that aim at assuring the enjoyment of culture and its
components in conditions of equality, human dignity and non-discrimination.
 9

*Diverses groups

How is this human rights?. It is for all people without any discrimination including.
For example.

*Children´s rights *Women´s rights

*Community LGBT rights *People with disabilities rights

*Older people rights

4.6 Consequences

The human rights violations occur when actions by state(or non-state) actors abuse,
ignore, or deny basic human rights (including civil, political, cultural, social,and
economic rights).

Furthermore, violation of human rights can occur when any state or non-state actor
breaches any part of the UDHR treaty or other international human rights or
humanitarian law. In regard to human rights violations of United Nations laws,
Article 39 of the United Nations Charter designates the UN Security Council(or an
 10

appointed authority) as the only tribunal that may determine UN human rights
violations.

Humans rights abuses are monitored by united nations committees, national

institutions and governments and by many independent non-governmental
organisations, such as:

*Amnesty International.

*International Federation Of Human Rights.

*Human Rights Watch.

*World Organisation Agains Torture.

*Freedom House.

*International Freedom Of Expression Exchange.

*Anti Slavery International.

These organisations collect evidence and documentation of alleged human rights

abuses and apply preassure to enforce human rights laws.
 11

The sentence can be pronounced depending on the severity of the crime, like wars of
agressions, war crimes against humanity, including genocide, are breaches of
international humanitarian law and represent the most serius of human rights
violations.

Here is the procedimment about whose broke the laws of the humans rigths.

Other form of break the rules of the humans rights in general could be the abuse and
the different types of abuse.
 12

Too many people is discriminated by important people or in the systems of the public
access.

And the application of the law In EEUU and European work in the laws of the human
rights.
 13

5 CONCLUSION

As we see according to statistics and surveys a big part of the population suffer and
sometimes they do too many of the different types of abuse, sadly they don’t respect
those laws that establish the human rights, they can do some events as they want but
if they don’t practice that values that impose much less the others will do the same.

May be the society has become more liberal these days but today are still maintained
that abuses, and the objective of the human rights is eradicate that problem and this
work is referring to respect and comply with the different types of human rights both
social and economic as well as civil and cultural.

Remember if you never experienced the dangers of war, the loneliness of being
arrested, the agony of being tortured or the affliction of hunger, then, you are better
than 500 million people.

6 RECOMMENDATION

All human rights are universal, indivisible, independent and interrelated. In the
community must treat all human rights in fair and equal manner. First we should start
respecting the rights of others, in each of our daily activities and when we develop
social, economic and environmental projects to improve the quality of life of all.

Secondly, participating in all social and political events exercising the right to
participate with which we count from the new constitution, we should make note of
the faults to these rights of each person inside your community and start with the
initiative, make authorities aware of our rights, and always knowing the correct
information about the human rights.
