The impact of globalization on human rights

Kopteva V.A., Muhtarova D.R.

"Globalization can be described as objective process, the cornerstone of which is historical and technological development, in particular -- development of transport, means of communication and information technologies and which makes deep impact on all spheres of economic, political, social and cultural life. It represents [1] the interpenetration of the markets, communications and the ideas through frontiers and personifies the growing interdependence of the countries. As a result of globalization, events occurring in one part of the world have consequences for people living in the other parts of it.

It is impossible to tell about the impact of globalization on human rights precisely; in this sphere it renders both positive and negative influence, changing reality. This subject is many-sided and includes not only political and legal, but also a set of economic, ecological, cultural, social and other aspects. All these aspects are interconnected. Under current conditions they develop separately from each other, but sometimes organize a tandem, strengthening their effect. It is obvious that it is good when one of these spheres is well developed in the state, but the level of development has to correspond to others and the state in general. In practice it is a frequent situation. "For example, thus, there is a tendency when the international capital tries to locate in the countries with lower wages, with an undeveloped social security system, low taxes and low level of protection". [1] Nothing good will get out of this situation. If these aspects developed simultaneously with the state, then results would be much better.

During the period from 2005 to 2016 the situation with globalization process has radically changed. Many countries have begun to declare "the free movements", "freedom of choice", "freedom in actions". But to declare and become a really democratic state are absolutely different things. People, through stupidity, often recite only that they hear superficially from different sources that distorts reality. There is a child's play: "A deaf phone", - you hear the information, but within your own consciousness it is seriously distorted and there is a dissonance between representations and reality.

It's not a secret that Russia is a democratic state. All our rights and freedoms are accurately stated in the Constitution of the Russian Federation. However, the Russian democracy as well as the democracy in other countries differs. «There is no democracy in its classical, "bookish" way in Russia. What we call "the Russian democracy" - is simply made up under a pseudo-democratic facade of the oligarch - bureaucratic monarchy with prevalence in power structures of security agencies representatives. Such democratic institutes as free media, fair elections, equality before the law and independent law enforcement agencies and courts, an opportunity to work political opposition, which are declared in the Constitution, in reality don't work. " [2] globalization law freedom political

We are protected theoretically, but in fact it is quite the opposite. People don't know their rights and don't assert them when it is necessary, making a mistake. In this respect we lag behind a number of countries. For example, in the USA citizens know their rights since childhood and always demand to defend ones. "But Americans often use rules of international law and human rights only to convict other states of their absence, and in future "to establish" them there by force. The U.S. State Department has brought the next accusation against China, having declared that in the absence of "concrete improvements" in the situation with human rights, Xi Jinping should not wait for warm welcome at the session of General Assembly of the UN in New York". [3]

It occurs only owing to the fact the Constitution was initially drafted under norms of the USA rather quietly developing and independently established country where the population initially learned bases of the rights and freedoms through culture and customs. In Russia, under oppression of the established history, there was no freedom, there was strictly constructed hierarchy of management, people have got used to be subordinate, receive accurate instructions and just to be under someone's protection. Many laws which are written down in Constitutions aren't simply carried out or in general are incorrectly made. For example, article KRF 13.4 which states Public associations are equal before the law. This article is violated everywhere by the authorities and United Russia party members. It is enough for understanding to turn on the TV, the radio receiver, to open the official newspaper. The democracy in the USA was established initially; in a natural way therefore it can really be called true. Of course, if we forget about two ruling clans. To establish the pure democracy in Russia it is necessary to make some kind of revolution because it will need to make too many changes. "The problem of establishment of democracy is as follows: whether political actors will agree with a framework of democratic institutes which will oblige them to a consent?». Trying to solve this problem reformers can get into the trap of "authoritative temptation" which is forcing them down from a difficult and long way of system of consent institutes formation as "balances of transit" on the way of the confrontation undermining a possibility of democracy" traps. [2]

Actually, our country is still developing; the transformations are not easily noticeable. It will take more than one alternation of generations to get the notable result. At the moment the Russians are keeping away from all of this, trying to escape to other countries, leaving what they consider to be imperfect. They aren't able to fight, aren't able and don't want because they have other skills and needs in their nature. "Nevertheless, we have a powerful tool capable to interest people in the destiny of their country: it is necessary to involve them in running it ". [4] But we chug along.
