Human Dignity

By: Hale, Rolf

"Human dignity is inviolable" there is something irrevocably paradoxical in this initial provision of the German constitution, which does not arise from embarrassment but belongs to the essence of what it refers to and invokes. The word "untouchable" does not just contain a prohibition; that dignity is inviolable does not simply mean that it must not be violated. Otherwise this initial provision would simply be in line with all other prohibitions of the constitutional law - or at least with those particularly privileged protective stocks that are unchangeable according to the system of the Basic Law: democracy, the rule of law, basic rights and much more.
