Introduction: Faith and the Founding Figures of Human Dignity

Brett G. Scharffs

The Review of Faith & International Affairs, 2023, vol. 21, issue 4, 1-5

Abstract: This special issue features original research on a wide range of individuals and groups that contributed to the drafting of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). The issue examines how the concept of human dignity played an important role in the definition, drafting, and successful completion of the UDHR. Contributors also give special attention to the religious or faith perspectives of the drafters (or the absence of such perspectives), and how this shaped their views of human dignity, human rights, and freedom of religion or belief.
