How many human rights are guaranteed, according to the


document?
There are 30 guaranteed human rights.
2. According to the Universal Declaration, how should respect for
human rights be promoted?
Respect for human rights is promoted by teaching and education and by
progressive measures, national and international, to secure their universal
and effective recognition and observance.
3. Which two articles of the Declaration do you think are the most
important? Give reasons for your answer.
1. One of the articles I think is the most important is article 5, no one
shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading
treatment or punishment, because I dont think its paid attention to
because of how some minorities are treated and some people in
general.
2. Another article I think is important is article 18, everyone has the
right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right
includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom,
either alone or in community with others and in public or
private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice,
worship and observance, because its basically saying people have
the right to be whatever they want and I believe that is very true.
Everyone should be allowed to think and do what they want with their
own self.
4. Should a nations record on human rights be the major factor in
determining the United States relationship with that nation?
Explain your answer.
I think if someone signs a contract of some sort, the things in that contract
should be followed just like it is everywhere else. Russia, for example, does
not exactly follow all of the human rights. I think there should be
repercussions like economic sanction or whatever is needed. I think it should
be a major factor, but communication is still needed between us and the
nations.
