Which of the following is NOT a classification of Human Rights?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option 4 - None of the above
Human rights have come to be classified into three types. The first type is political rights such as freedom of speech and assembly. The second type is economic and social rights. The third type is the rights of colonised people or ethnic and indigenous minorities. While there is broad agreement on this classification, there is no agreement on which set of rights should be considered as universal human rights, nor what the international community should do when rights are being violated.
