individual rights

Individual rights are distinct from  civil or legal rights as these are rights granted by government to citizens and will vary with the organization and administration of governments. Individual rights identify a boundary of just social interactions in presence or absence of government.Individual rights are sometimes held to be distinct from human rights, because human rights often references a basket of civil and individual rights. The former class of rights is often considered to include human goods and benefits (positive rights) rather than rights proper (negative rights.) Individual rights are an individual's moral claim to freedom of action. Such rights may be respected or recognized by others for reasons of reciprocity, contract, pragmatism, or as a moral imperative. Also some theorists believe an individual can forfeit their rights if that individual does not exercise reciprocal respect and restraint.
