    Human rights ARE permanent! They have always been and always will be. True, they have been recognised only recently, but they are universal and inalienable, they are NOT optional conventions, and their existence is not due to utilitarian trends! I would have appreciated to hear you mention in virtue of WHAT they have been determined to exist. And also in virtue of what they can be waived. Huge error to present individual rights transition into collective rights, they are very different things, and very hard to reconcile. Unlike human rights that apply to ALL individuals, collective rights represent the interests of various sub-groups. And one taking precedence over the other always seems to lead to conflict, even disaster.

    This is a great simplification of the problem. Where is all the traction of natural law and natural right, with which Locke came from? Where is Aquinas, School of Salamanca, where finally is Bartolome de las Casas (Indian rights)? Moreover, feudal peasants were not slaves. They were "glebae adscripti". Their occupation was hereditary, and they were not the talking instrument, the thing, the property.

    Desde México,usted que tiene voz en los medios de comunicación y en organizaciones internacionales sobre derechos humanos solicitó su ayuda para que Human Rights retome mi caso, el 29 de Marzo de 1995 el gobierno de México,en atención al Gobierno Chino,me privaron de mi libertad en mi propio país,sin comer incomunicada , y en el área de varones de los ilegales, durante 24 horas,en el Instituto Nacional de Migración,siendo mexicana no me dieron la protección,la protección se la dieron al Gobierno Chino, después hubo amenazas para que me callara o estuviera quieta con mis denuncias,,por lo que en ese año pedí ayuda a las organizaciones internacionales sobre derechos humanos y la prensa internacional así fue como Estados Unidos tuvo que intervenir para parar las amenazas,sin embargo yo continúe con esta lucha de defensa ,pero tanto las instituciones federales correspondientes,como las instituciones jurídicas internas de mi país federales,no me han dado el derecho de defensa,por lo que continuo desde 1995 hasta la fecha sin la protección del Gobierno de México,y por lo tanto vulnerable,en mi propio país,en 1995 el entonces presidente Ernesto Zedillo,y el Gobierno Chino,en cada sexenio,el Gobierno de México los ha protegido de este asunto siendo un hecho de Corrupción Encubrimiento e Impunidad,no le han permitido a la mexicana,demandar la reparación de daño y la protección del Estado ,protección que desde 1995 no tiene,ante la Emergencia Sanitaria y Humanitaria,temo por mi vida porque ni siquiera cuento con la seguridad de atención de salud,ya jubilada ,continúan violando mis derechos constitucionales y Humanos la oficina de la ONU,de derechos humanos en México tiene la información de mi caso. Así mismo envíe a procesos especiales como me indico la ONU, la información de mi caso,pero aún no he tenido contestación,por eso pido a usted su ayuda para que los medios de comunicación extranjera de nuevo den a conocer mi caso y que Human Rights retome mi caso,está es la forma en la que podre seguir en vida en mi propio país.

    Thank you so much for attempting to keep us informed about the history of human rights. This particular lesson, however, is hard to listen to because of the use of the phrase "sort of" every several sentences. "Sort of" makes it hard for me, and maybe others, to listen to the audio. I had hoped to use it in a community education class, and would do so if the speaker could diminish his habit of "sort of", which distracts from the information he is trying to impart. Thank you.

    But where do human rights come from? Someone has to grant rights, and someone has to enforce them. How did that start without force??

    If you have universal individual human rights, including the right to equality and equal protection under the law, how can you progress beyond that? Collective rights? Are you referring to rise in communism and collectivism in the early 20th century as progress to collective rights? Is the notion of group rights based on identity antithetical to the notion of basic universal rights including the right to equality?

    Granted it was an overview, but I found your analysis a bit lacking. In truth, there is a split in the conception of human rights as to origin. The split is largely between English empiricism and French (or more broadly European) rationalism. From the traditions of the English perspective, rights are natural or innate to the individual and largely consist of negative rights. That is to say that human rights should be primarily conceived as freedom from compulsion. From the traditions of the European Continental perspective rights are granted by the state (or by extention society at large) to the individual citizenry. For my part, I would argue that these are not rights, but privileges, as what is granted by the state can similarly be revoked by the state without cause or due process. Your analysis mentions the concept of social or collective rights, but completely ignores the conflict between the previously conceived notion of individual rights and how those rights are inherently infringed upon by the concept of a collective (or positive) notion of rights. For example, one might argue that humans have the right to healthcare, but they ignore the physician's rights of basic freedom in totality by making such assertions. So, you have rights in a collectivist framework, unless you're a medical doctor in which case you are effectively a slave bound to the state (or any other role that society would deem as essential to maintain the "collective" rights of someone else)? Sounds a bit totalitarian to me, if I'm being honest. I find this omission to be a glaring oversight as it is perhaps the main source of modern social conflict. Those countries founded upon English common law are not built to recognize collective rights in an official capacity, nor should they be. Communism and Liberalism have never been compatible. Their foundations are in opposition to one another and they can not exist within the same system of government. If this is what people out there have been learning, it's no wonder so many younger people don't understand American 'Common Sense' and the conception of human rights upon which the United States was founded. Regardless of any ideological bent you might have in regards to your politics, you are doing a disservice to those who would absorb your presentation with some implicit understanding that individual rights were merely a stage in the progression of our understanding on the way to social or collectivist rights. These concepts are still in very real conflict to this very day, and if you're going to present a modern understanding of human rights it is dishonest to frame your arguments as you have in the video above.

    Terjemahan human rights ke dalam bahasa Indonesia adalah tidak tepat, bahkan salah. PBB dalam Universal Declaration on Human Rights memakai dua istilah yang saling berkaitan tetapi berbeda makna yakni human rights (hak manusiawi) dan fundamental human rights (hak asasi manusia). Sayangnya, dua istilah tersebut itu diterjemahkan persis terbalik. Human rights diterjemahkan menjadi hak asasi manusia, padahal seharusnya diterjemahkan menjadi hak manusiawi; sedangkan hak asasi manusia seharusnya merupakan terjemahan fundamental human rights dan bukan human rights. Ini kan cilaka! Terjemahan yang salah ini berdampak besar pada pemahaman dan penerapan human rights banyak orang Indonesia. Karena terjemahan yang salah ini, maka diskusi diskusi mengenai human rights sering tidak tepat. Banyak orang Indonesia yang memahami human rights memalui terjemahan yang salah itu, sehingga pemahaman dan aplikasi mereka tentang human rights juga salah. Yang lebih parah lagi, banyak orang Indonesia mengucapkan “hak asasi manusia” (fundamental human rights), padahal yang dia maksudkan adalah human irghts (hak manusiawi). Kacau kan? Tidak semua pelanggaran human rights itu otomatis merupakan kejahatan. Kok bisa? Untuk melihat lebih lanjut, Silahkan membaca lebih lanjut dalam artikel di Jurnal HAM yang dipublikasikan oleh Badan Penelitian dan Pengembangan Hukum dan Hak Asasi Manusia. Artikel ini berjudul: Hak Asasi Manusia atau Hak Manusiawi? Silahkan di googling saja. Tidak semua pelanggaran human rights itu otomatis merupakan kejahatan. Kok bisa?
