The constitutional practice of the developed countries to a certain extent has weakened the controversy over the issue of human rights on the basis of the constitutional provision of fundamental rights and freedoms, which exclude the oppression and violence of the state with respect to the identity, defending its autonomy and supremacy of human rights against the state. A historical approached is applied to the content of human rights to housing and its distribution in society.
