CIVIL RIGHTS OF MINORITIES IN INTERNATIONAL LAW
Keywords:
Civil Right, Minorities, International LawAbstract
The negative character is inherent in the rights of minorities. These rights only require that they not be infringed by governments. In many cases, especially under dictatorial governments, minorities are exposed to harassment, persecution, and the confiscation of rights and freedoms. Therefore, here the negative character plays an important and fundamental role in the field of determining the rights of minorities. Rights are inherent to the human being and are determined by the international community, internal legislation, and international legislation. All constitutions include a provision for human rights. Although the civil rights of minorities are stipulated in the constitutions, they are still only a dead letter and have not reached the stage of actual application of the rules and provisions of the constitutions in many countries. Therefore, minorities continue to suffer from being deprived of their civil rights in many countries
