Answer 2

Customary rights’ refer to established, traditional patterns of norms that can be observed within a particular socio-cultural setting (Thompson, 1991). Sets of customary rights and obligations may be called customary law. Customary rights exist where there is a consensus of relevant actors considering them to be ‘law’.
