Human rights in postmodern condition

In this study, the historical, intellectual and factual origins of the postmodern situation, as a phenomenon that causes "the end of human rights" discourses to come to the fore against the identity and cultural demands will be shown, the impact of these origins on the idea of human rights will be examined, it will be put forth that the claims based on particularities, asserted simultaneously on the same subject with claims based on human rights, establish different types of norms than human rights alone. Today, human rights, which states globally rely on to ensure their legitimacy, have become an empty signifier, with the idea that there is no need to justify the notion due to the lack of clear knowledge of the concept and the pragmatic benefit it provides, thus all kinds of particular demands have added to the notion in national and international texts without knowledge of its value. By demonstrating the epistemic foundations of human rights, it will be stated that the particular demands expressed today by denying human rights or blurring the content of the concept, can be put forward within the group rights of those based on human rights.
