How is the value that a society places on individual rights reflected in that society’s government?

1 answer:

6 0

The extent to which these rights are protected, and enumerated in the country's laws and constitution reflect the value that the society places on individual rights.

A country, such as the United States or Japan, which enshrines the individual rights of the people in the Constitution and in its laws, clearly places a high value on such rights.

A country that does not, and even goes so far as to outlaw many of these rights, such as the right of public dissent, is not a society that places a high value on such rights (examples include China, Saudi Arabia).

Edit

The Portuguese Burghers[1][2][3] are an ethnic group in Sri Lanka, of mixed Portuguese and Sri Lankan descent.[4] They are Roman Catholic and spoke the Sri Lanka Indo-Portuguese language, a creole based on Portuguese. In modern times, English has become the common language while Sinhalese is taught in school as a second language. Many Portuguese Burghers living on the east coast of Sri Lanka are of Portuguese descent; this is evident in the Sri Lanka-Indo Portuguese language, which has many affiliations to Sinhalese and Portuguese.[5] They are mixed with other Burgher people, including Dutch Burghers. However, Portuguese Burghers are not Dutch Burghers.[6]
