The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) is a milestone document in the history of human rights. It was drafted by representatives around the world with legal and cultural backgrounds and was proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in Paris on 10 December 1948 (General Assembly Resolution 217 A) as a common standard of achievements for all peoples and all nations. It declared, for the first time, fundamental human rights to be universally protected and has been translated into over 500 languages.
The UDHR is widely recognized as having inspired and paved the way for the adoption of more than seventy human rights treaties applied permanently today at global and regional levels (all containing references to it in their preambles).
Constitutional Law is a paramount law of the land. The basis of Constitutional Law is its philosophy called “Constitutional Jurisprudence.” Constitutional Law determines the fundamental rights of citizens and the obligations of “the state.” While discharging the functions under the Constitution, the state is expected to ensure the protection of its provisions and philosophy.
In the present context, many issues are emerging along with pre-existing constitutional issues. Academia is morally responsible and responsive to synthesize these issues. Constitutional Law is a major focus of legal studies and research. We welcome all scholarly people to contribute their efforts and share a multidisciplinary knowledge of the Constitution, law, and jurisprudence across the globe.
