Abstract

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in Paris on December 10, 1948, establishes for the first time the fundamental human rights to be protected throughout the world. Among the rights mentioned above the article 15 proclaims the following:”1. Everyone has the right to a nationality. 2. No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of its nationality nor denied the right to change its nationality. “However, today, more than sixty years after the first post-war effort on human rights, millions of stateless people are spoken of; that means, without a legal bond that links them to a State. This condition leads to greater problems and triggers the deprivation of other rights inherent to human beings, because of the lack of documents certifying them as a citizen of a State, they cannot easily access to public services such as health, education, employment; to free circulation, neither political rights. There is much to be done in international law in the matter of human rights. However, the first steps towards the eradication of the condition of statelessness people in the world, through international instruments and the adherence to them of more and more States, are already evident.
