Abstract:
The United Nations were created after World War II, which goal was to save humanity from the scourge of war, to affirm faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person. Then the next documents were adopted: Declaration of Human Rights (1948), International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural rights (1966), the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (1966) and other important legal acts on human and civil rights, which were universal in nature.
