Hi,

Your answer :

Since the eighteenth century, on various occasions in national or international political life, human rights have been put forward in written and proclaimed statements, which are generally called Declaration. We will first be attentive to the mode and context of the enunciation, even before we are interested in the content. What does it mean for human rights to be declared? They are not stated in a law or rule but in propositions that say what is. They do not say that men have to recognize this or that right to this or that, but that men have such and such human rights. This fact is all the more paradoxical because Declarations occur in contexts where precisely these rights are not effective. During the American War of Independence, the Americans' right to freedom was not recognized by British laws and power. In France, in 1789, human rights were not granted to the French by the laws of the kingdom. Thus, the Human Rights Declarations state that men have such and such rights whereas the laws in force do not grant precisely these rights. Even the 1948 Universal Declaration can be understood in this way. It affirms human rights in the face of situations created by totalitarianism and fascism in which states have denied human rights to entire peoples. In situations where men are unable to enact laws that uphold human rights, they have only one solution: to proclaim that they have these rights even though positive law does not give not. This is the first thing we have to leave with regard to the meaning of human rights: the gap between statements that say rights, and laws that grant rights.

Good bye ;)
