Hans J. Morgenthau on Human Rights - Dictionary of Arguments

Brocker I 287
Human Rights/Morgenthau: Question: Do morals and customs do what international law is unable to achieve in an age of sovereign statehood? Is there an ethos that is binding across borders, or is there at least a public opinion on a global scale? Morgenthau finds traces in the field of human rights. For him, however, these are not hopeful approaches, but only weak remnants of yesterday's Christian and aristocratic European-dominated world. Their overarching moral unity is lost.(1)
