Cultural relativism
Cultural relativism is the view that rights and moral standards are products of particular cultures rather than universal absolutes. It treats human rights claims as legitimate only when they fit local traditions, religion, and history.
Universalism
Universalism is the view that human rights belong to all people regardless of culture, religion, or nationality, because they rest on moral principles that hold everywhere. It treats a core set of rights as valid across all societies, not just where local tradition happens to support them.
