The need for security and human rights

Summary/Abstract: One of the security paradigms of the twenty-first century has at its core the following question: how to keep intact the nucleus of fundamental civil and political rights, given that, as analysts of globalization believe, there is a tendency or fear that, for added security or a minimum guaranteed security, some fundamental civil and political rights could suffer some limitations or restrictions? Lately the relevant debates have been complicated by the invoked right to humanitarian intervention or pre-emptive intervention. The present article argues that the two sides of fundamental rights and security (individual, collective or international security) should not be viewed in opposing terms, while new developments should be addressed within an updated UN judicial framework and a culture appreciative of human rights should be promoted.
