Who has classified human rights as first generation, second generation & third generation human rights ?
Answer: A
The three generations were classified by Karel Vasak (printed Vasek).
In 1977 Karel Vasak, a Czech-French jurist working with UNESCO, described three generations of human rights, linked to the French revolutionary ideals: first-generation civil and political rights (liberty), second-generation economic, social and cultural rights (equality), and third-generation solidarity rights such as development and a healthy environment (fraternity).
Karl Marx, Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill wrote long before this classification; Bentham famously dismissed natural rights altogether.
