Human Rights and Political Power: A Critical Analysis of Global Inequality in Enforcement.DE

This book examines how the enforcement of human rights is often shaped-not by universal moral principles-but by political power. It argues that while international human rights frameworks claim equality and impartiality, in practice powerful states selectively apply or ignore these standards to serve their own strategic interests. Weaker nations, by contrast, are more likely to face scrutiny, intervention, or sanctions.The analysis highlights structural inequalities within global institutions, revealing how political influence, economic dominance, and geopolitical alliances undermine consistent human rights enforcement. Ultimately, the study calls for a more just and balanced international system where accountability is not determined by power, but by genuine commitment to human dignity and universal justice.
