ad-work [718]

Answer:

The concept of individual rights refers to the freedom each individual possesses to pursue life without interference from other individuals or the government.  A community is a collection of said individuals, with common interests and values, who take up community responsibilities to ensure that the collection holds objective standards that are beneficiary to all.  Even though these concepts are intrinsically linked, in that one cannot survive without the other, there is often a desire to separate them and define where one ends and the other begins.  Human social life can often be seen as a unity of two seemingly contradictory behavioral ideas: status competition and reciprocity.

Individual rights refer to the liberties of individual to pursue freedom and happiness, and that right should not be interfered by other individuals or the government. It is related to ideal of the United States Declaration of Independence. Thomas Jefferson said “A wise and frugal Government shall restrain men from injuring one another, and shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvements.” This statement represents US’s ideal.
