THE ROLE AND IMPORTANCE OF HUMAN RIGHTS IN THE SYSTEM OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS

Abstract

This article examines the role and significance of human rights within the system of international relations from a scientific perspective. In the context of globalization, it highlights that political, economic, and cultural interactions between states are closely linked to the respect for and protection of human rights. The study applies analytical and comparative methods to explore the mechanisms of international organizations, particularly the United Nations, in ensuring human rights, as well as the principles of universality and non-discrimination, and the classification of human rights into different generations. The results demonstrate that international human rights frameworks play a crucial role in shaping state behavior and promoting accountability. The discussion further addresses the tensions between state sovereignty and the protection of human rights, emphasizing their complex and sometimes contradictory nature. The article concludes that the protection of human rights at the international level is essential for maintaining global peace, stability, and effective cooperation among states.
