Relationships between human rights & development issues have not often been considered. Any successful integration of these issues must find a common denominator between them; recognition as essential rights of liberty & democracy on the one hand, & basic economic needs on the other, offers one, & development oriented toward fulfillment of minimum needs is an appropriate strategy for relating human rights to development. Basic rights for all societies include the right to take part in elections, the right to employment, & the right to movement & assembly; these rights can be mutually supportive. Western systems of political pluralism do not offer a valid way for Third World nations to meet economic goals; & many Western nations are themselves now in the midst of economic & political crises that may well lead to corporatism. Marxism, on the other hand, does not provide basic political rights. Thus, neither viewpoint offers a valid approach to human rights for leaders of the Third World. The only model that meets all the needs of Third World societies is that proposed by Mohandas Gandhi, based on the leadership of a moral elite in the creation of a decentralized democracy. W. H. Stoddard.
