Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow, based on your understanding of the passage (Question no. 71 75)

Whether Human Rights are Matters of Domestic 1urisdiction

The opinion among international jurists and UN experts is divided on the question "Is the question of human rights essentially a domestic matter There is a group of scholars who contend that matters of human rights do not fall under the "domestic jurisdiction" of States. They based their contention on the fact that if a particular question was covered by some provision of the Charter, it became a matter of international concern. For instance, Hersch Lauterpatch argues that the prominent position accorded to human rights in various Articles of the Charter "are no mere embellishments of a historical document", nor was it "the result of an afterthought or an accident of drafting", or "the vague expression of a trend or a pious hope". He has said that the significance and the character of human rights as provided in the Charter are not at all of a declaratory nature, but they impose legal obligations on member States. Human rights having become the subject of a solemn international obligation and one of the fundamental Purposes of the Charter are no longer a matter falling within the domestic jurisdiction of UN members.

The opponents of these views point out that mere mention of human rights in the UN Charter does not testify to its binding effect, that they contain only a programme of principles, not legal norms; that the human rights are not defined in the Charter and that under the Charter the members have only agreed to "promote" international co-operation in these matters. Manley Hudson doubted the binding effect of these provisions. He interpreted the words, "promote", "promoting" and "promotion", which are invariably used in the Charter provisions concerning human rights, in such a manner as to contradict the point that these provisions have created an obligation for member States with regard to the protection of such rights. "Member states had not, by signing the Charter, assumed a legal obligation to treat persons under their jurisdiction with respect for human rights... They merely had agreed to "promote international cooperation to that end". Likewise, Felix Ermacora, while distinguishing between the "promotion" of human rights and the "protection" of those rights, argues that the "promotion" of human rights is no longer essentially within domestic jurisdiction, while their protection falls within the reserved domain of States. Manouchehr Ganji has refuted the contention of Manley Hudson. If in the opinion of Hudson, the States are free to treat their nationals in any manner they please, then he questions, what would be the sense of the obligations created under the terms of Articles 55 and 56 of the Charter The answer to this question depends on the definition which may be attached to the word "Promote".
