The Effect of Corona Virus Spread in Increase or Decrease of Government Role in the View of Realists and Liberates

Ali Asghar Modaber

Abstract: The right to health is one of the most fundamental human rights, which is emphasized in human rights documents. The spread of the coronavirus has posed major challenges to the various dimensions of human rights, the most important of which is the right of being healthy. There are basically two perspectives about the belief in the role of government and international law in general. The first view is the realist’s view, who see the behavior of governments based on their benefits and question the implementation of international law. The second group is the liberals, who place great emphasis on the application of international law. According to the beliefs of this group, governments also generally have certain responsibilities in relation to securing and guaranteeing this right. It is clear that governments cannot fully guarantee the health and well-being of individuals, but governments can provide conditions in which the health of individuals is protected and access to health is possible for individuals. This obligation is driven by the obligations of governments to implement human rights in accordance with international law.
