Human rights
I wonder whether human rights are a good example. Human rights by definition claim universality, in other words, they always apply, even without codification, or in a dualistic system.Of course, whether all alleged human rigts really are universal. It is a fundamental philosophical and ethical matter what rights are universal. The existence of a codification in a treaty is immaterial for that purpose. There is also a development of perceptions on human rights in course of history. The very emergence of human rights as a legal concept is pretty recent.But for the purpose of this lemma, if a right is considered a (universal) human right, it applies regardless of the system, imho.A added this to the discussion page rather than the actual article because I expect international law experts to be able to further substantiate my argument.Rbakels (talk) 07:15, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
Some errors in the "Examples" section
The first quote in that section doesn't have a reference (it also lacks a closing quotation mark).
