Human rights in Germany - Law. 1  The constitution of Germany, the Grundgesetz, which came into effect in May 8, 1949, puts a particular emphasis on human rights. Its first sentence, Human dignity is inviolable, is being interpreted as protecting the sum of human rights. This paragraph is protected by an eternity clause and cannot be changed.
1918, I believe, the same year women over the age of 30 (?) were given the right to vote in the UK. In Germany the right to vote included all women.
