Abstract
Abstract The issue of human rights has rarely influenced policies of the League of Arab States, which has failed to criticize its members for violating human rights. Therefore, the adoption of the Arab Charter on Human Rights in 2004 is considered a significant event in the field of human rights in the Arab region. The aim of this article is to explore the main features of the Arab Charter on Human Rights in order to understand the potential role which it can play at both an international and regional level in the field of human rights.
