Human right

IHRL link (law)

International human rights law (IHRL) is the body of international law designed to promote human rights on social, regional, and domestic levels. As a form of international law, international human rights law is primarily made up of treaties, agreements between sovereign states intended to have binding legal effect between the parties that have agreed to them; and customary international law. Other international human rights instruments, while not legally binding, contribute to the implementation, understanding and development of IHRL and have been recognised as a source of political obligation. {{#subobject: |Has superobject=Human right |Has objectClass=Quotation |Has author=Human Rights Watch|+sep=, |Has text=“Ironically, in light of its long-stated commitment to upholding human rights at home and in its foreign policy, the US government today poses a threat to the universality of human rights.” |Is about=Human right,human rights|+sep=, |Has wikipediaPage= |Has location=|+sep=, |Has publicationDate=1999 |Sourced from=1999 World Report |Has sourceDetails=Introduction |Has sourceTitle= |Has sourceName=1999 World Report |Has sourceURL=
