Resumen
Humphrey’s first draft already included a right to science in the same article as culture and arts. According to René Cassin, the article was included per request from several cultural organisations, including UNESCO, which was represented at this time before the Commission on Human Rights by Jacques L. Havet. Why did the drafters not include any mention of the purposes of science? What was UNESCO’s role in those debates? What were the impacts of the Nuremberg Trial? And how were the two thematic elements, the right to take part in science and the right to enjoy the benefits of scientific progress and its applications, introduced in the final version?
