The Right

Abstract Can one speak philosophically of a justified limitation of freedom? Hegel’s logically founded definition of free will and his understanding of right and duty can contribute to a clarification of the concept of freedom. Important is a precise differentiation between freedom and caprice (Willkür) – the latter being a necessary but one-sided element of the free will. In caprice, the will is not yet in the form of reason. Rational rights and duties are not a restriction of freedom. Insofar as individual rights can collide (e. g. in emergency situations), there can be a temporary and proportionate restriction of certain rights in favour of higher rights, such as the right to life. Dictatorships are instances of capricious rule which restrict freedom; the rationally designed state, by contrast, restricts only caprice. What is tobe defined are the duties and the rights of the state and the duties and the rights of the citizens.

The Way

Is health a human right? Many would maintain that it is not. On this view health and ill-health are due to natural causes, not to State actions. Others are concerned that health raises too many polycentric problems to be dealt with through justiciable human rights. These contestations have shaped the way in which the right to health is understood. Section II sketches out the health context. Section III considers jurisdictions in which there is no express right to health, but a right has been derived from rights to life, personal integrity, or privacy. Section IV contrasts this approach with jurisdictions with an express right to health. Section V examines the role of the right to equality, while section VI focuses on reproductive health. The final section returns to the challenges of polycentricity and the extent to which a justiciable right can address systemic issues rather than individual rights to medication.

This chapter examines the rights that are specifically conferred upon data subjects and to the remedies which may be available in the event of any breach. The Data Protection Act 1998 provides in the sixth data protection principle that ‘Personal data shall be processed in accordance with the rights of data subjects under this Act’. Part II of the Act is entitled ‘Rights of Data Subjects and Others’ and provides for rights of access, the right to receive certain items of information, and rights either total or qualified to object to certain forms of processing of their personal data.

The Right

The chapter defends economic liberties such as the right to private property and freedom of contract as basic human rights, which the authors refer to as productive human rights. Despite being largely ignored or criticized in the theory and practice of human rights, they serve all the key functions that human rights generally serve. Using a basic interest framework, the chapter show that productive rights qualify as human rights because they both directly serve the interests of individual rights-holders, as well as the interests of people across the societies in which they are upheld. The chapter concludes by reflecting on the theoretical implications of a theory of justice that omits productive rights, and focuses only on things like meeting people’s needs. Such a theory will end up distorting important truths about human life and agency.

Taking Dworkin Seriously

Hard Cases

Ronald Dworkin's legal essays have provoked considerable commentary on the nature of rights, law, and judging. Curiously unexplored, however, is the central claim of his work: that it presents a coherent and liberal theory of law. This article examines that claim and finds that Dworkin is most successful in establishing two propositions: (1) in “hard cases” at law there are “right answers” and (2) “articulate consistency” is the appropriate method of discovering and expressing them. Neither of these propositions, however, has any essential relation to the individual rights that he admonishes us to take seriously. Moreover, the right which Dworkin takes most seriously, “equal concern and respect,” rests upon a foundation incompatible with his argument on behalf of “right answers.” Thus, Dworkin's theory of law is neither coherent nor liberal.

Jaminan perorangan melahirkan hak perorangan, yang merupakan persetujuan pihak ketiga untuk mengikatkan diri kepada debitor dan kreditor yang terlibat dalam perjanjian kredit demi kepentingan kreditor. Dalam hal debitor tidak memiliki harta kekayaan dan tidak mampu membayar utang kepada kreditor, maka penanggung berperan sebagai cadangan debitor dan wajib membayarkan utang kepada kreditor. Tanggung jawab penanggung lahir ketika debitor tidak melaksanakan kewajiban kepada kreditor dan penanggung telah melepaskan hak istimewa yang dimiliki. Penanggung yang telah menggantikan pembayaran debitor demi hukum memperoleh hak regres, yaitu hak untuk menuntut kembali atas pembayaran yang dimiliki. Pembahasan yang menarik mengenai jaminan ini berkaitan dengan hukum kepailitan mengenai penegakan hak regres agar dapat diakui sebagai utang untuk dapat memperoleh piutang pembayaran yang telah dilakukan. Kata Kunci: Hak Regres; Jaminan Perorangan; Kepailitan.
