Unión Europea-China: dos visiones sobre derechos humanos. Consideraciones sobre el concepto americano de derechos humanos
Palabras clave:
Asimetrías, contexto cultural, Unión Europea-China, derechos humanos, concepción del mundo, xiaokang (小康)Resumen
Este artículo compara las respectivas concepciones sobre los derechos humanos en la Unión Europea y en China, y realiza ciertas consideraciones sobre la visión estadounidense de los derechos humanos, analizando
las similitudes y diferencias respecto de los antedichos sistemas. Pero también profundizamos en las causas de la brecha conceptual entre ambas partes. El trasfondo cultural determina la concepción de los derechos humanos. Por lo tanto, los derechos humanos son asimétricos entre diferentes países o civilizaciones. Analizamos las causas y efectos de dicho fenómeno. Como no existe una Constitución europea, comparamos la ley fundamental de Alemania (ya que es la Constitución de uno de los Estados miembros de la UE) con la Constitución de China y analizamos la importancia que cada sistema otorga a los diferentes grupos de derechos humanos. Profundizamos en la agenda china para el logro de los respectivos niveles de bienestar social. El vínculo chino entre los derechos humanos y los medios de vida es otro de los aspectos que estudiamos. Mientras que en la UE y en Estados Unidos los derechos políticos son primordiales, China otorga la mayor importancia a alcanzar ciertos estándares socioeconómicos. Concluimos nuestro artículo evaluando las posibles tendencias
en el desarrollo del derecho internacional.
