Burial within the framework of human rights. An analysis from its contextualization in Ibero-American law

Abstract

The social practices and customs determine the presence and relationship with the death. It emerges this way, the necessity to make sure what treatment it must make on the physical remains. In this context, ambivalence of the genuineness exists to prepare on its own bones. The norms of the public right only ponder their treatment in defense of the collective for health questions It is then that the prominence is enunciated from an inalienable right to the human being: the right to the sepulcher, or the man’s right on their remains. Although it lacks recognition in the studied constitutional texts, this absence is tried to replace with laws it has more than enough cadavers, cemeteries and sanitary. However, for the lack of a common ordination, they don’t keep unit.
