collective rights are for certain specific groups of people, like the Indian Act. Individual rights are meant to protect an Individual and his interests. For example: Right to life.
Their collective rights would be defended at all costs.
The difference between statutory and non statutory rights is that one is supplied by the government and the other one isn't. Statutory rights are bestowed by particular government to governed people and are relative to specific cultures and governments
Rights are what you are entitled to, depending on where you are, and obligation is what you are obliged to do, ei. what you have to do regarding those rights, for example, children have a right to be loved, but their obligation is to be respective of others.
Under the International human rights individual persons are protected under this law. Under the UN obligate all member of the international body to protect rights of individual and the domestic law of all the states and fail to do so has breaches the international human rights.
The man running for president promised to defend the individual rights of every citizen by passing new laws and keeping taxes low.
No, collective rights are horrible compared to individual rights.
To what extent should governments attempt to balance the promotion of individual and collective rights?
There is none, If we chose to put ourselves in a situation where we have rights. then the point of view can not effect rights, A right can not be changed it can only be denied. there fore there is no relationship between the rights of the individual and the collective other then that the collective has the power to stop the individual from implementing its right if it chooses to do so.
It is a contract that disregards the rights of the individual in favor of the "will" of the collective. The rights of the collective? Honor the rights of all individuals and the rights of the collective are undeniably protected. Claim the collective has rights that are superior to individual rights and the collective becomes a pool of human fodder for those clever enough to plunder. The will of the people? The people have spoken? I am speaking now, when you speak you will be speaking then and if you speak in these WA pages you are participating in a collective but are you speaking for the collective? Certainly, as many will attest, I don't speak for the collective. I speak for those who find themselves with headings such as ANOTHER VIEW or A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE and were I to foolishly enter into agreement with any social contract, my VIEW and PERSPECTIVE would be subject to the "will" of the collective. I am fortunate to be treated as an individual with certain rights as an individual in this WA site, and I am fortunate there is Dispute Resolution Center and a Community Advisory Team set in place to help me when I find myself being subjected to the "will" of the collective.I relish being an individual, I am proud and honored to be a part of this collective known as WikiAnswers.com, but I will always be an individual first and foremost and so will you.
Collective identity and collective rights are completely different because collective means the same thing which is a group of people so we know what they are both a group of people but we don't know what rights and identity are. So here I'll break It down for you. Identity means what people look like and rights mean like freedoms and laws.
There is a small difference between rights and public issues is simple. Rights involve the individual or small group and public generally involves the whole.
mobility rights, freedom of speech, individual and collective rights etc,etc.......
that the US mainly focus on individual rights and Canada focus on group rights
Collective rights are rights held by a specific group, for example first nations people have the right to fish and hunt freely in Canada. French people have the right to speak in their own language and to be understood.
Group rights are held by a group of people such as a council or board. Individual rights are held by one person and one person only. Historically group rights have been used to breach the rights of individuals.
democracy at persent has become a way of life as no other form of govt. gives the individuals this much rights, liberty to grow, freedom and so many other rights. It is the govt. of the majority but with minority rights. It promotes both individual as well as collective rights. Communism stands for the common use and sacrifice the ind. liberty and freedom. there is scope of supression of the rights of the individual.
There is a difference
