Question

Which of the following is a limitation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights?
It holds those who commit atrocities accountable for their actions.
It represents a moral code only and cannot be enforced by law.
It promises political and civil rights but not social and economic ones.
It does not promote equality based on race, nationality, or gender.

Answer 1

"It represents a moral code only and cannot be enforced by law."

Explanation: The UDHR is a non-binding declaration adopted by the UN General Assembly — it has great moral and political authority and influenced binding treaties (e.g., ICCPR, ICESCR) and customary international law, but by itself it does not create enforceable legal obligations.
