Read the passage given below and answer the
questions that follow based on your understanding of the passage (Question Nos.
71-75):
The most broadly influential contribution
of the natural rights tradition is the idea that human rights belong to “persons
as such” or simply by “virtue of their humanity”. This notion arises as one of
the explanation of the universality of the human rights. Whereas naturalistic
theories typically arise from the reflections about what is common in the
nature and circumstances of human life, the theories to which we turn now arise
more often from reflections about legal and social diversity. These theories
conceptualise the human rights as standards that are or might be objects of
agreements among members of cultures whose moral and political values are dissimilar
in various respects. These views obviously perceive that in view of social and
cultural diversities human rights cannot become universal. However, it is felt
at the same time that human right philosophy can help to develop an agreement
about ‘moral minimum’ or ‘core basic human rights’ to be followed everywhere.
So a good philosophical task is to explicate Minnow’s “dilemma of differences”.
