The deeper question, which I do not address here, is whether the discourse of individual rights is morally viable in the first place. Some contemporary critics argue that the notion of rights possessed by persons as such, by anyone regardless of historical context, is fatally flawed, and should be supplanted by alternative moralities, for example, one of love or caring.
