Desde los enfoques tradicionales sobre derechos humanos, los agentes transnacionales quedan fuera de la legislación que protege estos derechos. Los procesos de globalización han incrementado el número y la tipología de estos actores que parecen no vinculados directamente por las normas de derechos humanos. El resultado puede traducirse en una crisis del Estado como protector y transgresor único de los derechos, y en una necesidad de nuevos enfoques que otorguen eficacia a los mecanismos de responsabilidad. El objetivo es argumentar a favor de la "eficacia frente a terceros" de los derechos humanos y poner de manifiesto la necesidad de transparencia en los mecanismos que rodean la creación de la lex mercatoria.

Se ofrece una reflexión de la pena de muerte, que parte de premisas esenciales desde la bioética y los derechos humanos. Se plantean algunas generalidades de esta disciplina, dado que orientan a un cuestionamiento respecto al aporte de la ciencia y la tecnología para llevar a cabo "ejecuciones más humanas". Enseguida se recurre a los conceptos de vida, persona y dignidad para enmarcar el argumento en los derechos humanos. Se retoman algunas sentencias de documentos internacionales apelando a un desarrollo del hombre desde la ética: la práctica de la pena máxima, por el contrario, lo retiene. Así pues, se anticipa que lo humano nunca se hallará en la aniquilación de su propio género.

Today we find it hurts a city that neoliberalism required to hide their conflicts, ordered him to say nice and pacified while hiding in her womb and exacerbates the conflict and reality that affects so magnified prisons and that's where it ends political models, democracies broken and battered Social State of Law.

The paper explores early post-war human rights language by looking at the drafting of the first article of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948), with a focus especially on the concept of 'dignity'. 'Human dignity' has been regarded as a central, even undisputable concept in discourse related to human rights since the Second World War. The first article of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states how "All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood". By looking at the preparatory work on the first article, and the related political choices and conceptual disputes, the paper will emphasise the political and rhetorical character of the concept of 'human dignity'.
