Consequently, this research focuses on governance in association with the respect for human rights, building upon the previous studies that emphasize the democratic institutions’ importance to achieve good governance, able to provide the best tools and mechanisms for legal and social protection. Therefore, democracy is understood not only as an end in itself, but also as a mean to secure rights (economic, political, and social). Thus, to analyze the governance mechanisms focused on the protection of human rights, it is necessary to include another concept, as democratization. Moreover, in a true democracy, the participation, dialogue, consensus, transparency, accountability, and the rule of law make the state more representative and able to respond adequately to the concerns of its citizens, and we believe that these conditions are indispensable to increase the respect for people and their rights, similar to the Kantian formula according to which a human beiing should be the main goal. Thus, addressing the issue of governance mechanisms with the focus on human rights, considering the broadness and the importance of the issue, requires comprehensive approaches, comprising the interdependencies between the institutional and human dimensions, between civil, cultural, economic, political and social ones, and between what it is and what should be.rocorporate governanceinterdisciplinary approachhuman rightsArticle
