[|www.wordle.net] media type="custom" key="10104521"


 * Why did you choose these five?
 * I chose these five because I felt these issues camed up a lot in the United States past and were put it this document to ammend theser issues.
 * Why are they the most important, in your opinion? These articles are most important because most of them talked about all men being equal and abolishing discrimination witch appeared a lot in the United States, and a civil war was faught over it.
 * Give examples (from history or today) that go against the articles you chose.

Now do some research (and think about the fake websites you viewed a couple weeks ago)! Under the heading 17.3, please answer the following about the UDHR:
 * 17.3: Research!**
 * Who was involved in its creation?
 * What purpose was the document created for?
 * When was it created?
 * Where/under which organization was it created?
 * Why was it created? What was the historical context?
 * How does it apply to today? How can you see it applying to today?

Start here if you need a direction: []

1. Dr. Charles Malik, Alexandre Bogomolov, Dr. Peng-chun Chang, René Cassin, Eleanor Roosevelt, Charles Dukes, William Hodgson, Hernan Santa Cruz, and John Humphrey all took part in creating the document.

2. To be sure the actions preceding World War 2 wouldn't happen again.

3. Dec. 10, 1948.

4. The document is intended to prevent atrocities that lead to world war 2 from occuring again. It was an attempt at peace between the nations involved in World War 2.

5. I think that they covered many things but not all conflicts in the world because we are at war right now with other nations and in order for it to end it will take a lot of time to come to an agreement with this enemy. However, today they are applied everywhere I look, because, there is no segregation, everyone has equal rights, and there is freedom and liberty everywhere.
