The fundamentalization of human rights evolved gradually in four stages: human rights conceptualization, human rights constitutionalization on the national level, international and regional institutionalization which led not only to fundamental rights value confirmation on the supranational level and their substance universal understanding as well as to the creation of the efficient international mechanism which permits to protect these rights on the governmental level as well as on supranational level in case of some government deviation to implement the committed international liabilities.
