Who will guard over the guardians?

American Journal of Economics and Sociology, 2023, vol. 82, issue 5, 471-480

Abstract: Human rights have been weaponized and transformed into geopolitical tools to target certain states and not others. The rhetoric of human rights has been distorted by politicians, media, think tanks and the emerging “human rights industry” that serves hegemonic powers and not humanity. This constitutes an affront against human dignity.
