Abstract

The promotion, protection and violation of human rights constitute one of the most recurring arenas of debate in international politics. All states proclaim their commitment to human rights. This commitment was consolidated with the adoption of the United Nations (UN) Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948, and other related instruments. But the quest to match that ideal with reality by committed governments, international and regional organisations has not been easy because gross human rights violations still exist across the globe. These violations have shaken national and international legitimacy of some governments. The objective of this paper is to explore aspects of the problems which are vital to the study of human rights and governance.
