Question

Short note on relationship between natural rights and human rights

Answer 1

When people discuss the human rights and natural rights, there seems to be a distinction between the two, where standard interpretations of human rights (such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights) are broader and incorporate rights, such as the right to education, which are not seen in explanations of natural rights. Natural rights, such as Locke's "life, liberty and estate" seem to be more limited in scope than human rights, yet also more fundamental.
