Human rights are what makes us human. When we speak of right to life, or the development or the dissent and diversity, we talk about tolerance. Tolerance will ensure all freedoms. Without them, we may be sure, nothing. Human rights are the following: The rights that a person just because he or she is human. • Universal • Interconnection • Indivisible Common myths about human rights: • Human rights are the same as civil rights. • human rights violations occur only in poor countries, foreign countries. • Human rights are concerned that the violations. • Only adults and lawyers understand the importance of human rights. • Human rights are only rights. • Rights and obligations Universal Declaration of Human Rights: The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) was drafted by the United Nations Commission on Human Rights, chaired by then First Lady, Eleanor Roosevelt. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted by the United Nations on 56 members of the UN General Assembly 10th December 1948. 10th December is now celebrated worldwide as International Human Rights Day. It now188 States at the United Nations, to educate on accession, to decided their citizens on the principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Most of these countries have taken the principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in their constitutions. Five main categories of human rights: • Civil Rights • Political rights • Economic rights • Social rights • Cultural rights Human Rights Education: Human rights education is essential for every person in society. Knowing human rights, it is possible to follow the rules and regulations and the rights and obligations. • Produces changes in values and attitudes • Produces changes in behavior • Produces empowerment for social justice • Development of attitudes of solidarity between nations and questions • develop skills and analytical skills • Produces participatory education Globalization: Globalization is the tendency of companies, technologies and philosophies in the world, or to spread the process to achieve this objective. The global economy is sometimes referred to as a whole, characterized as totally networked market, unhampered by time zones or national borders. The spread of McDonald’s restaurants worldwide is an example of globalization, the fact that they adapt their menus to local tastes is an example of globalization (also known as internationalization), a combination of globalization and localization. Globalization and Human Rights: Globalization, the increasing interdependence of states, markets, communications and ideas across borders, is one of the main features of the contemporary world. International norms and institutions for the protection of human rights in more than previously developed in history, while the growing global civil society resources to encourage the citizens oppressed by their own states. But continuing attacks on the dignity of human rights, and the very blurring of boundaries and the rise of transnational actors that the development of a global regime of human rights facilitated new sources can also be violations of human rights. Even if it more generally accepted and articulated the rights of individuals have come to depend increasingly on a wide range of global actors and forces, departments of multinational missions. Globalisation is thus a set of transnational flows of people, production, investment, information, ideas and authority (not new, but stronger and faster). Human rights are a series of claims and rights to dignity, that the existing international regime takes over will be provided (or threatened) by the state. A cosmopolitan and open international system should free people to defend their rights, but many people seem to state repression of both long and denials of new rights in relation to suffer to transnational forces. The essays in this volume show that the challenge of globalization that migration flows inexplicable and open markets are new threats that no state to give do it yourself-based systems, human rights, while new opportunities for information and global institutions are not sufficiently accessible and distorted by the intervention of the persistent state. The impact of globalization on the state of violations of human rights is based, depends on the nature of the state and its history. In democratic countries with weak institutions and elite-controlled economies (Russia, Latin America and Southeast Asia), tend to increase the growth of global markets and economic fluctuations to destabilize the coercive force, but crime, police abuse and corruption. global mobility and flows of general information for the promotion of ethnic mobilization, self-promoting in the states, but may be sensitive more often the product of the abuse of the collective defense of the hegemony of the ruling group. Secondly, the same forces slowly openings made institutional less fragmented party states (like China and Mexico). In much of Africa, globalization has increased the power vacuum, ironically, by two challengers substate empowerment and provision of sporadic intervention that moves the old regime, without need for further consolidation. Some of the worst abuses occurred in all of transnationalization, Hobbes civil wars in Sierra Leone, Angola and Congo. Center for Globalization: The Yale Center for Study of Globalization which uses a variety of ways to explore the globalization and promote the circulation of ideas, basic to all our questions.

YCSG has developed and continues to work with multilateral institutions, international organizations and global and individuals who contribute through their work at universities or government actions essential to cultivate the globalization debate. It is necessary to establish such a center in our university. In the modern generation of computer literacy is also very low in our community. It is very sad that our students have no interest in learning computer training. Without computers, it is not possible to share the views of citizens from other countries. Amnesty International: Amnesty International is a worldwide movement that for the overall protection of human rights. It is independent of all governments and neutral in their relation to political groups, ideologies and religious divisions. Amnesty International was founded in 1961 by Peter Benenson, a British lawyer. It was originally his intention to appeal in Britain to receive an amnesty for political prisoners around the world. The working committee for this problem soon became clear that a detailed documentation of this category of prisoners would be required. Gradually they realized that the work should be done on a permanent basis, the number of political prisoners were enormous, and they were in every part of world.
