Sumario:"The first years of the 21 st century having passed, it is now necessary to readdress human rights during a time characterized by a scarcity of will for its preservation", says the Argentinean psychologist Elio Rodolfo Parisí in this essay, contributing important elements to an understanding of the sociopolitical and sociohistorical discourse which supports such rights, how they are situated in Latin America, and how they are legitimized in a globalizing context. It reminds us that, even if there is legislation that protects human rights, the struggle for their survival has been and will be represented by confrontation between opressors and opressed.
