Smile The unborn: Does international law have a legal definition on the term "human being"?
Does international law have a legal definition on the term \"human being\"? And several human rights instruments refer to \"everyone\" has the right to this and that. Is that term, \"everyone\" defined in international law? If not, how can these human rights be applied when the legal subjects of human rights are not defined?

Thank You

It does not apply to the unborn universally--each jurisdiction has to decide on that issue.
