Scholars have developed differing theories of international relations, so depending on which school of thought you might subscribe to, this may influence your increasingly complex explanation of a single definition for human rights theory. This discourse outlines new human rights theories to be seriously considered within the realm of international relations. It is important to understand what a theory is and what exactly is an international relations theory; and furthermore what is a human rights theory? To develop this workable model theory of human rights, it is necessary, in my opinion, to analyze predominant international relations theories first, and then come to a more informed consensus as to what human rights theory really is, or what it is not! However, it is immediately evident, that human rights theory does not explain or coincide neatly, with modern dominant accepted international relations theories. So, who cares right??? Well you should......:)
