Human rights are "basic rights and freedoms to which all humans are entitled"[1], or more easy than it, could be: the rights you have simply because you are human.
We can say human rights started in the UK in the year 1215, with the Magna Carta, because the people thought that the most important thing in our lives are ourselves.
Nowadays there are 30 human rights, but I think that the fifty percent or more, we don't respect, and it could be a seriously problem in a future, because this percentage could increase.
I choose the human right number 5, that say: "No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment"", because I think that it's one of the most important for me, and in these ages it isn't respected in all the world; everyday we can see a lot of proofs of it in the newspapers for example, and now, I've just included a link about this: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/iraq/5708020/British-Army-faces-20-new-Iraq-torture-claims.html
Nevertheless in this country it is more respected that other sites, but in the past, there are a lot of people that used this method to impose, because in this way they could obtain that he wanted.
For this reason, these days the people continue to use it because they feel superior, and it happens in all the world, in all countries.
