A Segunda Guerra Mundial e seus reflexos no Sistema Internacional: o fortalecimento do Direito Internacional e a criação de um regime de Direitos Humanos

Abstract

This monographic work investigates, from an analytical-explanatory perspective, the emergence and evolution of International Law and Human Rights in the post-World War II era, underlining its influences for the positivation and appreciation of the United Nations Charter in 1945, such how: the appreciation of the human condition; adherence to the principles of international relations and compliance with international legal norms. To this end, the qualitative-analytical method is used, which is considered fundamental to base the consolidation of International Law and Human Rights in guaranteeing and protecting human dignity and international legal harmony, choosing a vast bibliographic review to carry out the dialogue between authors of the studied works. It directly and transparently presents the repercussions of crimes against humanity, the disregard of the principles of international relations and the transgression of international legal norms, perpetrated by the Nazi regime during the Second World War (1939-1945). For the International System, these crimes resulted in the creation of the United Nations, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Convention for the Prevention and Suppression of the Crime of Genocide.
