With the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948, human dignity as an important foundation for explication and formulation of human rights seriously found its way into the legal texts, to the extent that today many countries, including the Islamic Republic of Iran, formulate their constitutions according to human dignity.
