HUMAN RIGHTS IN ILLUMINATIONIST AND EXISTENTIAL ANTHROPOLOGY
Journal Title: Asian Journal Social Sciences & Humanities - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
The notion of "Human Rights" entails the relationship between the two notions of "man" and "rights". This relationship, however, pertains to many theoretical as well as philosophical elaborations. Looking critically at the prevailing conception of this relationship, namely that of possessive individualism, this paper points to a different conception for such relationship and suggests a maximal notion of human rights by invoking the insights of illuminationist/existential philosophy of S. Suhrawardi and Martin Heidegger.
