The Universal Declaration of Human Rights
The UDHR urges member nations to promote a number of human, civil, economic and social rights, asserting these rights are part of the "foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world." The declaration was the first international legal effort to limit the behavior of states and press upon them duties to their citizens following the model of the rights-duty duality.

Chuey should be aware of this from the U.N. Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. After enumerating the rights of "indigenous" people, it states:
Article 46
1. Nothing in this Declaration may be interpreted as implying for any State, people, group or person any right to engage in any activity or to perform any act contrary to the Charter of the United Nations or construed as authorizing or
encouraging any action which would dismember or impair, totally or in part, the territorial integrity or political unity of sovereign and independent States.
This is off topic, but it is really too bad that this article makes this one of race when it is really about foreign nationals illegally entering a sovereign nation and taking jobs that should be reserved for its citizens and legal residents.
