The mechanisms of soft rights in the international human rights space have different functions, which has led to the conclusion that a fixed place for the concept of soft rights in the normative hierarchy of the international human rights system cannot be considered.
Soft law documents and mechanisms sometimes appear as an independent source and sometimes as an auxiliary and subsidiary source to verify other legal rules.
