Apstrakt

Uspostavljanje bolje stvarnosti je ključni zadatak međunarodnog prava. Važan deo ovog zadatka je istinsko poimanje stvarnosti. Ljudska prava su adekvatno izražena u međunarodnim konvencijama, ali je oko nas prisutna i jedna trajna opasnost i jedan trend da se principi ljudskih prava poimaju kao fraze te da se odvoje od realnosti. Obrasci razmišljanja koji sledi parole se rađaju u ideologijama, ali mogu i da nadžive ideologije. Istovremeno, pozitivne inspiracije mogu da se pretvore u zalet koji se odvaja od stvarnosti. Svedoci smo snažnih trendova da se istinski važne teme (kao što su afirmativna akcija, pokret „woke” ili moderno ropstvo) potiskuju na jednu ili drugu stranu ideološkog suprotstavljanja.

Pretnje ljudskim pravima se menjaju i rešenja se mogu naći samo ako se suočimo sa onim pretnjama koje sada stoje oko nas. O ključnog je značaja da se stvori realna percepcija ljudskih prava, uključujući prava manjina i prava socijalno nejednakih. Ne sme se izostaviti iz uma  ni fenomen „modernog ropstva“ („modern slavery”) koji je takođe postao deo naše stvarnosti. Nastojanja da se štite ljudska prava mogu biti efikasna samo ako ih usmerimo na sadašnje stvarne pretnje.
