DIGNITY

Moral, ethical, legal, and political discussions use the concept of dignity to express the idea that a human  being has an innate right to be valued and to receive ethical treatment. In the modern context dignity can function as an extension of the  enlighten era concepts of inherent rights. English-speakers often use the word "dignity" in proscriptive and cautionary ways.

History  Of  Dignity:

Over the last 60 years the idea of human dignity has become increasingly prominent in the political discourse on human rights. In United Nations documents, for instance, human dignity is currently presented as the justification for human rights. An annual Dignity Day on October 20 was arranged for the first time in 2008.
