Inquiry into Human Rights by Man——Review on Human Rights and Human Diversity:An Essay in the Philosophy of Human Rights

Abstract

A. J. Milne regarded the book Human Rights and Human Diversity as a work of the philosophy of human rights, and mentioned in its preface that philosophical inquiry into human rights, as an effort to understand the world and human being, should not be limited to any tradition of particular culture and civilization. In essence, philosophical inquiry into human rights is a kind of research by human, that is, each man can make his contribution to the inquiry. Milne’s theory of universal minimum human rights is reexamined, and some concomitant questions with Milne inquiry are posed in this review.
