Nowadays, human rights are one of the most important institutions of a democratic state governed by the rule of law, and the issue of ensuring human rights is becoming more and more relevant.

Equality

Equality means that all people are equal in dignity and deserve the same treatment, regardless of, for example, their ethnicity, sexual orientation or functional limitations.

What are human rights?

Human rights are universal legal protections for individuals and groups against acts and omissions affecting their fundamental freedoms, rights and human dignity.

The Rights of the Child in the Family

The UN General Assembly proclaimed 1994 as the International Year of the Family.

In essence, the relationship between constitutional human and civil rights and freedoms and politics is meaningless to deny.
Politics is closely linked to human rights and often appeals to them in an attempt to ensure interaction between different social groups “by reconciling the desirable and the objectively achievable”.
By refracting economic interests through appropriate institutions and power structures, politics provides a focus for the realisation of constitutional rights.
Human rights, on the one hand, are used as a reference point (goal) for all political activity and, on the other hand, can be seen as an attribute (means) of political struggle.

Ultimately, volitional political decisions are given normative expression, contributing to the implementation of certain constitutional values. It can therefore be argued that human rights and freedoms are in the permanent “focus” of politics; they do not exist outside the political arena and depend on the ability of public authorities to find a balance between constitutional necessity and political expediency when making certain decisions affecting individual rights and freedoms.
