Synopsis
This study touches upon the complex discourse surrounding universal human rights within the framework of cultural diversity. It explores the origins of universalism in natural law, tracing its evolution through moral development and contrasting perspectives like cultural relativism. The examination spans historical, philosophical, and legal dimensions, emphasizing shared values amidst diverse cultural traditions. The narrative underscores the delicate balance between acknowledging cultural diversity and preventing its exploitation to violate inherent rights. Ultimately, the study asserts that while cultural disparities exist, the pursuit of universality in human rights hinges on ethical navigation, recognizing the intrinsic worth of every individual irrespective of cultural boundaries.
