Dzhamal Z Mutagirov

Human rights, democracy and the rule of law, which are the goals of many national societies, require nowadays their expansion so they became the qualifiers in solving of the international problems as well. We are talking about the same phenomenon, but manifesting at various levels of the people's lives and, as a result, of the different actors’ activity. Criteria for international democracy require their further systematization. The article draws attention to the paradox, when some leaders of the democratic countries, strictly observing the standards of democracy in their own countries, are opponents of the equal rights of the people and principles of international democracy. The article traces the evolution of the trends of international democracy on examples of the United Nations and European Union.
