Özet

Human rights, regardless of nationality, residence, gender, ethnic origin, color, religion, language, disability, age or status, are the rights of all human existence. Since the first person, respect for human rights has been important in every age but the states which violate the human rights have been at the stage of history for many years. Continuing search for human rights was often due to riots. The first written document with an emphasis on human rights published in the United States’ Declaration of Independence in 1776. Then, in 1789 ’Declaration of Human Rights’ was published. About human rights practices between countries, the publication of these papers did not bring the desired standards. Individual objections and resist in this regard was not effective. Today, it seems that states’s assurance to the human rights is not sufficient. As a result of globalization and advances in communication technologies, people around the world react to a breach in the world’s most remote corner. International civil society organizations monitor human rights violations by showing activity, documenting, distribute and constitute a response to the international arena. Human rights are excluded from the territory of the states by several agreements. European Convention on Human Rights System is an example of this. Thus, human rights, has been the problem of the international community of states from being a domestic job. Human rights practices have become an item for limiting the sovereignty of the states. The international community bearing a collective responsibility to protect human rights can make an armed intervention if necessary. NATO in Kosovo in 1999, on this basis, bombed Belgrade to end human rights violations. Nowadays, the international community’s got to be a party in Libya to end human rights violations in this country is based on the grounds. Nowadays, the intervention of the international community in Libya is based on the grounds to end human rights violations in this country. The first step in the protection of human rights in a country is a knowledge-based better understanding of human rights. At first glance, this suggests ’school’. Courses related to human rights in public schools in Turkey with the contribution to the students’ daily lives are a matter to be investigated. The purpose of this study is to search answers for “How students perceive the basic concepts of human rights? How they interpret today’s developments in terms of human rights? To what extent the students are adjusting the concepts of human rights in their lives? "questions and to share needs to be done to educate the students with better understanding about human rights. © The Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology.
