"Are U.S. Efforts to Promote Human Rights Culturally Biased and Self-Serving?"
That is the question to which the answer would decide our foreign policies as well as why and how other nations perceive us as they do. So, in your opinions, is there such a thing as universal morality, or do our morals differ so much that, for example: murder, rape, exploitation of child labor, are viewed as 'normal' to some (even hurtful to the economy if child labor is banned)? Many have said that the US has no right to interfere with how other governments run, but what about in the case of abuse or things that affect humanity and global society? |
