Summary: | At the end of the 20th century, human rights have frequently been qualified as the common heritage or the common language or humanity. They do not belong to the domestic jurisdiction of states and are internationally protected, creating a body of universal standards and values at the service of human dignity, equality and non-discrimination, and human freedoms. |
