Discussion: International Perceptions of Human Rights
Following the atrocities of World War II, world leaders created a legally binding declaration that would act as the foundation of international human rights law.
1). The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, drafted by committee members from several continents, represents "the universal recognition that basic rights and fundamental freedoms are inherent to all human beings . . . [w]hatever our nationality, place of residence, gender, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, language, or any other status" (United Nations, n.d.-a, para.
2). The leaders recognized that these rights are "inalienable and equally applicable to everyone, and that every one of us is born free and equal in dignity and rights" (United Nations, n.d.-a, para.2).
Although the United Nations declared these rights to apply to everyone, individuals from various cultures differ in terms of ethical norms, codes of conduct, and values. How do these cultural differences in ethical norms and codes of conduct affect public administrators' perceptions of human rights?
For this Discussion, select two cultures within one country (e.g., Basques and Romani people of Spain).
Post a (200 word APA Format) explanation of how the cultural differences in the ethical norms and codes of conduct in your chosen countries might affect a public administrator's perception of human rights within that country.
Then, explain how both global governance structures and nongovernmental organizations might address these differences in ethical norms and values in order to improve human rights in that country.
