On December 10th 1948, the United Nations General Assembly ratified the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The Declaration enshrined the principle that human beings could no longer be treated in law or public policy as mere tools of the powerful or subjects of the state, but that they possess inherent value, and must be permitted to live their lives according to the priorities they themselves identify, in so far as they do not infringe the rights of others. The ratification of the UDHR symbolized the triumph of humanitarianism in the aftermath of the most destructive war in human history, at the midpoint of what had already become the most destructive century in human history.
