Assignment:

Answer the following questions about human rights. there is no reading assigned to these questions, rather these are reflection questions. please make sure to fully answer each question with details to support the answer.

1. Even if you accept that economic and social rights are just as important as civil and political rights, is there still a difference between them? If so, what makes them different?

2. We have argued here that the historical generations approach to understanding human rights is problematic. Are you convinced? Why or why not?

3. Following from Question 2, would it make sense to talk about contemporary economic and social rights (guaranteed by the state), such as those related to work, working conditions, education, health, and social security, in the context of the eighteenth century (when core civil and political rights first emerged)? (In this sense, the three generations idea points to the fact that the particular rights implications "life" and "liberty" were elaborated before the rights implications of "the pursuit of happiness." And then the social solidarity underlying all human rights came to receive greater emphasis.)
