On the basis of a couple of concepts the signified and the signifier in Semiotics, we proposed another couple of concepts the signified of Human Rights and the signifier of Human Rights, at the same time, The signifier of Human Rights and the signified of Human Rights unified in the phraseology of Human Rights. This kind of cognition supplied a A pure integrated perspective of understanding the categories of Human Rights.In the perspective, we provided programmatic and constructive criticism for ontology and epistemology of Human Rights. Then we described the legitimacy challenge to Human Rights.The understanding to the signified of Human Rights was limited in the scope of ntology of Human Rights. Exactly, from the related perspective of the relationship between of Human Rights and rights, we expressed the chaos of the signified of Human Rights,the most deadly mistake of methodology and theory consequences cased by the mistake. Then we further advanced the view about the autonomy of Human Rights category to pure the concept of Human Rights.The discuss to the signifier of Human Rights was limited in the three typical Human rights theory Paradigms such as Naturalistic Human Rights theory, universalism Human Rights theory and low-limit Human Rights theory. Since it was the "signifier", it meant that the system were open theoretical questions, that is to say there must be various theory narratives that embodied variations on Human Rights theme continuously.The chaos of the signified of Human Rights and the openness of the signifier of Human Rights, on the one hand, made the Theoretical approach of contemporary human rights differ from one another. On the other hand that showed the maximum possible categories of Human Rights. However,we may inevitably fall into the doubt when facing the widely different signifier of Human Rights:was it possible or impossible to structure a steady Human Rights theory? The doubt was also the origination of the question to the legitimacy of Human Rights. The profound question can be see an effective disenchantment to Human Rights theory.
