dc.description.abstractThe following research work was intended to know the pragmatic interpretation of universal declaration of human rights by Pakistani youth. The attempt was to highlight the implicit factors from cognitive, social, historical, cultural and political contexts by which the interpretation of even a universally accepted document gets varied. Cultural diversity and its relationship to interpretation of Universal Declaration of human rights were, thus, the focus of this research. For this a random sample of Pakistani students at post graduate level from all over Pakistanwas selected. Their opinions and interpretations about this particular charter were then collected through questionnaire and in-group discussions and informal interviews. The collected data was then analyzed through Likert Scale. The results proved that a significant cultural bias against United Nations and the West is dangerously affecting the pragmatic interpretation of this particular charter, thus require practical measures to protect basic human rights around the world.en_US
