Human Rights

Quiz: My score is 22/41.

1. What are human rights?
Human Rights are rights and freedoms to which all humans are entitled.
The concept of human rights assumes that all the people from the world have equal rights, so that they are universal, inalienable and indivisible, regardless of their nationality.

2. When did human rights start?
Human rights started on the 10th of December 1948, after the second world war.
Before the human rights appeared there were already other laws, but they didn't were respected in all the countries of the world. In the poorest countries these laws have not paid attention.

3. Why were they created?
They were created after consequences of the second world war, because they wanted that from that time on all humans have the same rights, no matter from which nationality, religion or race they are.

4. How many human rights are there?
There are thirty human rights.

5. Which human right were you not familiar with?
I think I am familiar with nearly all of the thirty human rights, because some of them are very obvious. But there are some others like "The right to play" and "Copyright" that weren't much evident, so I was surprised to see that they are also human rights.

6. Choose one human right and discuss:
I am going to talk about the 18th human right: FREEDOM OF THOUGHT.
I think that all the people of the world have the right to think about what they want. No one has the right to decide the thinking of the people.
Every single human of the planet can believe in the religions, beliefs and theories he/she want.
There is a difference between the right of freedom of thought and the right to say what someone thinks, because the opinions and statements of a person could hurt someone else or there could be some other problems like violence.

7. Are Humans rights relevant in the world today?
I think that all thirty human rights are relevant and respected in the world, in some countries more and in some others not so much. And I am very happy that nowadays they were very contolled, because not so many years ago not all of them were obvious for all the people. But now, if human rights wouldn't exist, the world would be very different because everyone would do what he wants.
