Since the American and French revolutions of the end of the eigh- teenth century, the human rights were centered on the individual. Human rights were considered to be individual rights. However, within the expression "human rights," the word "human," meaning individual human beings, was during a rather long time understood in a rather narrow sense.展开更多
