The+Netherlands-AM-FA10

= The Netherlands =

Netherlands - Constitution I chose this because it is the Constitution of the Netherlands. Therefore, it would list the rights of its citizens. Despite the fact that human rights situations are much better in the Netherlands than some of the other countries, the Constitution seems to be similar.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights I chose this article because it outlines the human rights expected by the countries of the world. Also, the Netherlands signed the Declaration, therefore agreeing to follow the human rights concepts outlined in the Declaration. The rights in the declaration seem to be pretty basic and support equality.

OTHER ARTIFACTS Support Global Protection for Child Domestic Workers I chose this article because it show the thoughts of the Netherlands on child workers. It also lists some of the horrific truths about child labor. I think it's inexcusable how these workers are treated.

Asylum Rights Granted to Lesbian and Gay Iranians I chose this article because it's about how the Netherlands is protecting Lesbian and Gay Iranians. This illustrates my point that the human experience is not always the same, because obviously the need protection from the Iranian government. If they're protected in the Netherlands, how could the human experience be the same?

U.S. Report on Human Rights Practices in the Netherlands I chose this because it was a report on human rights in the Netherlands. Also, it shows not only the human rights situation in the Netherlands, but what the U.S. thinks of it. The report also stated that "the government generally supports the rights of its citizens."
