Freedom from fear is listed as a fundamental human right according to The Universal Declaration of Human Rights. On January 6, 1941, American president Franklin D. Roosevelt called it one of the "Four Freedoms" at his State of the Union, which was afterwards therefore referred to as the "Four Freedoms Speech."〔Roosvelt, Franklin Delano (January 6, 1941) (''The Four Freedoms'' ), American Rhetoric〕 In his speech Roosevelt formulated freedom from fear as follows: "The fourth is freedom from fear, which, translated into world terms, means a worldwide reduction of armaments to such a point and in such a thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of physical aggression against any neighbor—anywhere in the world."〔 The four freedoms of Roosevelt formed an important pillar of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that were adopted on December 10, 1948, by the United Nations General Assembly.〔Alfredsson, Gudmundur & Asbjørn Eide (1999) ''The Universal UN Declaration of Human Rights: A Common Standard of Achievement'', (page 524 ), Martinus Nijhoff Publishers, ISBN 978-9041111685〕 The freedom from fear is mentioned in the preamble of the Declaration.〔United Nations, (''Universal Declarations of Human Rights'' )〕 In 1943 painter Norman Rockwell created ''Freedom from Fear'', in his series of four paintings called ''Four Freedoms''. It is an important concept for Burmese Aung San Suu Kyi, who published a book on it in 1991 with the title ''Freedom from Fear''. In 1999 historian David M. Kennedy published a book called ''Freedom From Fear: The American People in Depression and War, 1929–1945''. == See also == *Four Freedoms Award *Four Freedoms Monument *Human security *Right to an adequate standard of living *Freedom from want 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Freedom from fear」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
