Description
Summary:It discusses the philosophical and ethical perspective of human rights and points its framming on post-modern and anti-metaphysical nowadays tendencies. It scopes in general, to explain the  concept  and  foundations  of  human  rights  under  the  historical  premisses  of  legal humanism. Specifically, it aims to shows the historical evolution of human rights to the posr- modernity, and to analyze how the methaphysical entwining of the man reflects on human rights interpretation. Methodologically, it uses the existential analytic theory (Heidegger) and applies it to the construction of an anti-metaphysical legal humanism. It indicates, as a result of the research, a huge philosophical gap on ethical and ontological perspectives of human rights. It concludes there a more intense philosophical study could be done about this theme, to entablish plural social and ethical grounds on legal-normative database.
