International human rights law is aimed at providing a set of basic standards to protect a range of rights for all people anytime, anywhere. In this chapter we will explore the root of international human rights law and how it will affect the basic principles of counter terrorism and human rights law.

The law usually expresses and guarantees universal human rights under the Convention, conventional international law, general principles and other international law. The International Human Rights Law stipulates that the government acts in some way or assumes no obligation to act in order to promote and protect the human rights and the fundamental freedoms of individuals and organizations. The principle of universality of human rights is the foundation of international human rights law. Many international human rights treaties, declarations and resolutions reaffirm the principle first emphasized in the 1948 World Human Rights Declaration. For example, the 1993 Vienna World Human Rights Conference states that there are responsibilities to promote and protect all human rights and fundamental freedoms, regardless of political, economic and cultural systems.
