Detailed explanation-1: -A right as a valid claim that one has to something. This sense of ‘right’ conveys more than a simple ‘ought’. In this sense, a right involves an entitlement or a claim that the right-holder is permitted to enforce in some way. The main idea: moral enforceability.
Detailed explanation-2: -In modern democratic states, a privilege is conditional and granted only after birth. By contrast, a right is an inherent, irrevocable entitlement held by all citizens or all human beings from the moment of birth. Various examples of old common law privilege still exist – to title deeds, for example.
Detailed explanation-3: -A claim right is a right which entails responsibilities, duties, or obligations on other parties regarding the right-holder. In contrast, a liberty right is a right which does not entail obligations on other parties, but rather only freedom or permission for the right-holder.
Detailed explanation-4: -Rights are primarily those state-recognised claims that every individual regards to be necessary for leading a life of respect and dignity. These are essentially a justified claim or an entitlement.
