“Horizontal” human rights and positive obligations

Journal Title: Юридические науки и образование - Year 2018, Vol 57, Issue 57

Abstract

Theory of horizontal human rights is one more attempt to substantiate direct action of international law in sphere of domestic relations. Such attempts presuppose that international norms direct regulate the relations of private individuals (individuals and corporations), create mutual rights and obligations to them. This theory hides not a bit of threat as it tries to extend a sphere of action of international law due to interfering in an area of domestic relations. Such theoretical ‘expansion’ is carried out by the western states, which, as it known, not frequently avoid commission of international obligations in an area of human rights. USA is a bright sample, which until now has not ratified most part of main agreements on human rights.
