Abstracts

PL

The article discusses the idea of universality of human rights faced with the diversity of cultures. It provides a short insight into the history of human rights institutionalisation, it also explains the meaning, scope and possible justification for the universality of human rights understood as the political project, which is morally justifiable and explicable in judicial terms. The universality and abstractness of human rights is presented as a complementary moment of individualisation of each human existence. The chief thesis is that human rights enable and admit the reconciliation of diverse, though not all, cultural practices.
