Human Dignity examines the concept of dignity as a central foundation of contemporary legal and human rights thought, and as a unifying principle from which fundamental rights and freedoms derive. The book traces the development of human dignity in legal and philosophical discourse and analyzes its role within international human rights law and modern constitutional systems, addressing key theoretical and practical challenges related to its meaning and scope.
The author emphasizes human dignity as a guiding interpretive principle in legal application, demonstrating its impact on redefining the relationship between the individual and authority, and on strengthening legal protection against violations. The book offers a balanced analytical framework that integrates both the normative and practical dimensions of human dignity.
