The Politics of Human Rights

The United Nations has peacekeepers, not an army which is probably a good thing because human rights can turn into politics by other means right and we can talk about that in a sec. There's there's no enforceable mechanism and instead what you have is the promise that states will uphold now states have shown themselves look coming back to freedom of religion for just another minute here but they will enforce it differently so you've got a number of cases in Europe where individuals can take their grievances against their states who are not upholding their human rights.
