Claim

Human rights, as a code of values juridically accepted at the international level, can legitimately signal the ethically acceptable or unacceptable limits of economic policy measures and economic functioning. The human rights system has the legal obligation to observe the economic system and to signal the greater or lesser impact it is having in meeting the needs of individual human beings and on their enjoyment of essential civil, economic, social, political and cultural rights.
