    Resumen: En este artículo se explican los presupuestos para concluir el papel esencial de las aportaciones del delegado chino, Peng Chun Chang, al carácter universal e intercultural de la Declaración Universal de Derechos Humanos. Al mismo tiempo, se explican con más detalle esas premisas para mostrar que no necesariamente hacen de la Declaración un texto interpretable a la luz del consenso entrecruzado de Rawls. Para eso, además, se ofrece una explicación del sentido en que los redactores incorporaron un argumento de fundamentación filosófica en la Declaración, y del papel que el libanés Charles Malik tuvo en ese proceso de composición.

    Abstract: This article explains the ideas behind the conclusion that the contributions of chinese delegate, Peng Chun Chang, were essential to the universal and intercultural nature of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. At the same time, these premises are explained in more detail to show that they do not necessarily make the Declaration a construable text in the light of Rawls’s overlapping consensus. In addition, an explanation is offered for the sense in which the writers of the Declaration incorporated an argument of philosophical foundation, and for the role that lebanese delegate, Charles Malik, had in that process.
