Legal Culture and Human Rights System in the Era of Globalization

Abstract

The paper is devoted to examining the impact of globalization processes on the formation and development of legal culture and human rights systems. The global space of modernity is represented by many different legal cultures, the formation of which is determined by national, economic, social, cultural factors. The processes of globalization lead to the need to harmonize different legal cultures with the principles of the universal legal order. It is shown that the conditions of globalization create both positive and negative trends in the development of international law. On the one hand, the consolidation of uniform standards in the field of human rights in international law creates a tendency to increase the level of guarantee and protection of fundamental human rights and freedoms. On the other hand, the degree of autonomy of the functioning and development of national legal systems is reduced, which leads to unevenness and varying degrees of the willingness of individual states to implement uniform standards in the field of international law.
