Human rights are closely related to local culture. In the sense that human rights standards to be accepted and implemented require local cultural legitimacy. People are more willing to follow these human rights standards when they accept the norms and values that underlie these standards as legitimate and valid from the point of view of their own culture. In other words, the stronger the legitimacy of human rights standards, the more they will be voluntarily followed by the people in general and the better their implementation by official state organs.
