The idea of human rights and the dynamics of reality have been shaped by one another throughout history. Together, they develop the character of an era. Through the observation of the human rights crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, “mobility” can be derived from the connections of space, behavior and values as an ana-lytical concept, identifying and investigating those historic events and their milestone impact on the idea of human rights. By further apply-ing mobility in the deconstruction of modernity, one can reveal a par-adox in the globalization process, and deduct and explain the crisis of modern human rights concepts. The solution to the crisis calls for the return of autonomy in modern state and society, especially the state's independent and political guidance for citizens in balancing diverse values.
