ABSTRACT
According to this article, the personality rights are the ones that provide the people
the guarantee to exercise the subjective rights which the Universal Declaration
of Human Rights of the United Nations and our own Political Constitution confer
to them. Besides, it must be taken into consideration that the personality rights are
not synonymous of rights of the person.
Any subjective right is a right of the person, since its “subject” is a natural or an
artificial person entitled to such right, while the“personality rights” are defined by
their special object. Like other kinds of rights, the personality right might belong,
consequently, to an “artificial person”, as well as to a “natural person”. Logically
speaking, both terms are complementary because the “personality rights” constitute
the umbrella under which specific rights know as “subjective rights” are sheltered.
These latter rights are the ones which dynamize the sense of the life of the personality
rights.
Nowadays, due, among other causes, to the confrontation between rights and
the social and political reality, such rights have been losing relevance and have been
violated and nulled.
