Abstract
Any adequate normative theoretical account, or philosophy, of civil rights and liberties must accommodate, among other norms, those set out in the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen (1789), the US Bill of Rights (1791), and the first twenty-one Articles of the Universal Declaration on Human Rights (1948). Paradigm cases include rights to life, physical integrity, security, privacy, property, and a fair trial; and freedoms of religion, expression, movement, contract, and association or assembly.
