Living under the rule of law means that regular citizens as well as <u>official leaders</u> must abide by and uphold the laws.
The rule of the law is a principle in which all people, institutions and the government are equally accountable under the law regardless of economic status, race, genre, age, beliefs. It aims to guarantee a just government and protect people's fundamental rights.
In the U.S., it was first established by the Founding Fathers of America after the American Revolution; they believed that the rule of law was a fundamental principle of a free and just government.
Summary:
Civil liberties concern basic rights and freedoms that are guaranteed -- either explicitly identified in the Bill of Rights and the Constitution, or interpreted or inferred through the years by legislatures or the courts. Civil liberties are guarantees and freedoms that liberal governments commit not to abridge, either by legislation or judicial interpretation, without due process. Though the scope of the term differs between countries, civil liberties may include the freedom of conscience, freedom of press, freedom of religion, freedom of expression, freedom of assembly, the right to security and liberty, freedom of speech, the right to privacy, the right to equal treatment under the law and due process, the right to a fair trial, and the right to life. Other civil liberties include the right to own property, the right to defend oneself, and the right to bodily integrity. Within the distinctions between civil liberties and other types of liberty, distinctions exist between positive liberty/positive rights and negative liberty/negative rights.
