Abstract or Description

This paper aims to demonstrate the interrelatedness of human rights and democracy. Specifically, it aims to demonstrate, that the effective protection of human rights is impossible in the absence of an effective political democracy. By focusing on the human rights situation, in a society, where democracy was, for many years, ‘absent’, this paper illustrates that societies with no traditional commitment to democracy cannot protect effectively the human rights.
