Human Rights from Within
Marko Hren
; Ljubljana
Sažetak
Usually we visualize human rights as the infringement of fundamental freedoms. The violators are, as a rule, the repressive authorities. But, human rights include much more than the mere violators and the helpless victims. No matter how cruel it sounds, the infringement of human rights performed by the repressive authorities represents the reflection of rights 'and freedoms’ violations for which each individual is responsible. Therefore, pleading for the realization of human rights, and simultaneously guaranteeing the implentation of human rights violated by the society and state, also requires the enhancement of the active realization of the rights of each individual.
In the text that follows, I am first of all dealing with the active approach to human rights, which acknowledges the wholistic character of human nature, its free will and personal responsibility to get acquainted with and to realize its rights, to initially learn more about oneself and to place (individualize) oneself, to be cured of one’s own non-freedoms and to freely and independently advance towards other beings. The text is conceived as an incentive for becoming conscious of our rights and for unreservedly and unselfishly realizing them.
