The Most Significant Events in the Development of Global Governance and Which of Them Most Directly Impacted on the Human Rights Agenda in International Relations

Abstract

Global governance is an undeniable reality but it was shaped by several events that had an impact on the international relations agenda that, at the same time, was translated into the development of global human rights policies. In this sense, events such as the establishment of the United Nations Charter, the Declaration of the Universal Human Rights, the end of the Cold War and the Globalisation era are analysed and linked to global governance tendencies and the improvements of human rights as a globally accepted value.
