Human Rights are still presented as a tool for human development under burgeoise society, regardless the current conjuncture of intense and profound socioeconomic changes erected in the name of social reproduction of the capital. Facing this context, Human Rights lose argumentative strength and practical foundation, which is a signal towards the need for their comprehension from the Marxian theory of value and fetishism, problematizing their concept of human being, within the emancipation of the ethical-moral subject. For this, dialectical materialism and qualitative research are used as a method of approach. Finally, it is argued that the ideology of Human Rights within the framework of capitalist society presents itself as a fetishized discourse.
