Detailed explanation-2: -Civil and political rights are violated through genocide, torture, and arbitrary arrest. These violations often happen during times of war, and when a human rights violation intersects with the breaking of laws about armed conflict, it’s known as a war crime.

Detailed explanation-3: -A critique of the UDHR is the tension between different particular cultural, religious and political values and the idea that these can all be represented by a unique universal declaration. This can lead to moral paralysis though.
