Abstract
El objetivo de este trabajo es dar una visión general de la investigación de derechos humanos con indicadores. Se analizan los conceptos fundamentales, qué es un indicador, qué lugar ocupa en el ámbito jurídico y sobre todo qué son los indicadores de derechos humanos. Se sitúa históricamente la investigación de derechos humanos con indicadores y se resumen los intentos más significativos de trazar un “mapa del mundo” en relación con su implementación, grado de cumplimiento o violaciones. Se recogen las dificultades generales en relación con el concepto y la metodología y así el juicio generalizado de la necesidad de mejorar numerosos aspectos metodológicos en el desafío de promover mejores métodos para evaluar la efectividad los derechos humanos. Por último, da cuenta de las recientes recomendaciones sobre indicadores en sede de Naciones Unidas y se propone una conclusión amplia sobre el estatus questionis de la investigación de los derechos humanos insistiendo en la necesidad de un fuerte marco teórico previo.
