SUMMARY:HRI Showcase: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights at 70 - t
 he responsibility of the legal profession
DESCRIPTION:The universality of human rights is being contested in many p
 laces in the world today. Cultural relativism\, authoritarian attitudes 
 and a desire to return to ‘traditional values’ bolster the belief that u
 niversality is unattainable and fanciful. For 70 years\, the Universal D
 eclaration of Human Rights has been the bedrock upon which the human rig
 hts treaties of the 20th century have been constructed. But is it still 
 relevant or useful? This session will examine the development\, current 
 status and relevance of the Universal Declaration in the 21st century. I
 n particular\, it will consider the responsibility of the legal professi
 on in this regard.
