A difference between a framework protecting national minorities established by the Versailles treaties and a framework protecting minorities originating from migration was blurred in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which adopted an all-inclusive approach to human rights. The present article is an attempt to research (a) what exactly the differences between the instruments protecting national minorities and the instruments protecting migrants are in one specific area, education, and (b) to what extent the general inclusiveness of human rights instruments has influenced or should influence the specific instruments pertaining to the protection of educational rights of migrants and national minorities.

The right to an education is guaranteed by international law in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Similarly, UNESCO’s Constitution sets out the right to an education as necessary to “prepare the children of the world for the responsibilities of freedom.” No such right is mentioned in the U.S. Constitution, though. Perhaps Congress or the Supreme Court would be sympathetic, however, to an argument for educational rights based on the 14th Amendment’s guarantee of the rights of citizenship.

La Declaración Universal de Derechos Humanos alcanzada por consenso es una justificación condicionada a un acuerdo de voluntades. El presente artículo, desde una perspectiva iusnaturalista, expone una fundamentación objetiva aceptando la existencia de cosas propias del hombre, derechos o iura, que le corresponden por el mero hecho de ser persona. Estos derechos se asientan en una naturaleza humana, entendida como principio intrínseco, inacabado y tendencial; una determinación genérica que permite entender su compatibilidad con la libertad y el cambio incesante del devenir histórico. La raíz de estos derechos se sitúa en una serie de deberes que son de exigido cumplimiento. Y a su vez se fundamentan en el deber-ser de lo bueno en cuanto bueno o —desde una perspectiva distinta— en la verdad de que determinada realidad es buena.The reached-by-consensus Universal Declaration of Human Rights is a justification with the condition of an agreement of wills. The present article, from an iusnaturalist perspective, exposes an objective foundation that accepts the existence of things proper to Man, rights or iura that correspond to him for the mere fact of being person. These rights exist in a human nature, understood as an intrinsic, unfinished, and on-trend principle; a generic determination that allows to understand its compatibility with the freedom and the incessant change of historical occurrences. The root of these rights is located in a series of duties that must be fulfilled and at the same time, they are founded in the must-be good of that which is good or —from a different perspective— in the truth that such reality is good.

Scientific novelty. The study found that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights points to the natural origin of human rights, which must be binding on all States and for the whole population, regardless of citizenship, in order to ensure the human rights protection in a democratic and rule-of-law State.

Art. 24 of the 1948 Declaration of Human Rights recognises and protects the right of the individual to rest and leisure. This right has to be fully exercised without negative consequences on the right to work and the remuneration. Tourism can be considered one of the best ways of rest and leisure because it allows to enrich the personality of the individual. Even after the reform of the Title V this area is no longer covered by the Italian Constitution, the Italian legal system protects and guarantees it as a real right, so as to get to recognize its existence and the consequent compensation of the so-called “ruined holiday damage”. This kind of damage has not a patrimonial nature, but a moral one, and the Tourist-Traveler can claim for it when he has not been able to fully enjoy his holiday - the essential fulcrum of tourism - intended as an opportunity for leisure and/or rest, essential rights of the individual.
