HUMAN RIGHTS IN ANTIGONA\u27S SCRAPE

Autor analizira pretpolitičku i političku genezu ljudskih prava, a zatim opisuje novovjekovni proces pozitiviranja ljudskih prava. Predmet analize su, s jedne strane, novovjekovne ugovorne teorije Lockea, Hobbesa, Kanta i njihova kritika u Hegela, a zatim geneza ljudskih prava nakon Deklaracije o pravima čovjeka i građanina. Na posljetku, na primjeru J.Rawlsa opisuje položaj ljudskih prava u demokratskoj pluralističkoj građanskoj državi i suvremenoj ustavnoj ili pravnoj državi, koja nastoji ograničiti demokraciju posredstvom bilo novih ugovornih teorija, bilo inzistiranjem na autonomnom i aktivnom ustavnom sudstvu.The author analyses the pre-political and political genesis of human rights, followed by the later process of positivization of human rights. The subject of the author\u27s analysis are, on the one hand, contractual theories by Locke, Hobbes, Kant, and their critique by Hegel, and on the other, the genesis of human rights after the Declaration on the Rights of Men and Citizens. In the end, on the basis of Rawls\u27 postulates, the author describes the state of human rights in democratic pluralist civil states and contemporary constitutional states governed by law, which have been trying to restrict democracy by means of either new contractual theories or by insisting on an autonomous and active constitutional judiciary
