| description | "Right" is the legal and moral entitlement to obtain or refrain from obtaining an action, in civil society. Rights are human constructs, created by society and enforced by the government. The constraints and obligations are placed on the individuals or groups.

However, right must be understood by someone in order to have its legal and moral existence.
