Abstract

This article addresses human rights in their complexity by dealing with the legal dimension of human rights and the moral dimension of human rights. The discussion of both dimensions and their specific contributions to the implementation of human rights - e.g., the element of enforcement by the legal dimension of human rights or the aspect of justifying the universality of human rights through the moral dimension - and their limits (e.g., the risk of particularity of legal human rights or the 'weakness' of moral human rights) lays the ground for the deliberation of the relation between them. Based on this assessment and deepened understanding of both dimensions, their interplay for the implementation of human rights is explored.
