Summary/Abstract: A state of crisis, which requires an insistent way to get back to the issue of human rights in the society, highlights the evolution of contemporary society. The situation in the issue of human rights and fundamental freedoms of man is the proof of the great spiritual cultural and moral, but also political-juridical transformations that go through the international community. This process is the consequence of political thought, where it becomes more and more crystallized the idea of the inseparable link of civilization and progress and the real and active participation of the Man in solving the political, economic, Socio-cultural, issues both within the state and all over the world. The promotion of human rights has as goal the transformation of the man from a passive observer in an actor and active participant at all the events and actions that take place in the contemporary world. The security and the respect for human rights become an inseparable condition for building up the state law and it has as effect the recognition as a democratic state at the international level. These basic ideas allow us to assert that the man as citizen and personality needs a system of legal guarantees of its rights compliance by the state, which can be accomplished through the institution of human rights. The Republic of Moldova was declared the law, democratic, sovereign and independent state, a fact that has allowed its alignment with the international standards regarding the security and the protection of the fundamental rights and freedoms of man. The General Stipulations concerning the rights and freedoms of the man and art .1 of The Constitution of the Republic of Moldova states that “the human dignity, his rights and freedoms, the free development of human personality represent the supreme values that are guaranteed”. The given importance to this problem is the standard stipulated in Article 4 of the Constitution concerning the interpretation and application of constitutional stipulations which relate to the rights and freedoms in accordance with the international standards, with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, with agreements and other treaties to which Moldova is party. This constitutional prediction demonstrates the commitment of our state to international standards in the field, giving priority to the international regulations.
