| | Inalienable Rights |
 | | Inalienable rights are a moral right, not a legal right. |  | | It is in a sense a contract between all the citizens of the EU (and their governments). |  | | If there were inalienable rights, the government or anyone else would not need to try to uphold them, you would always have them no matter what. |

 | | In the case of the inalienable examples, a kinship term cannot be encoded with a verb of possession under any circumstances. |  | | Inalienable vs. Alienable Possession Even though Guarani does not have special morphol- ogy to distinguish alienable and inalienable nouns, some formal aspects indicate that there is such a dis- tinction. |  | | First, in the case of body-part and kinship terms, the inherent character of inalienable possession is reflected in the fact that these nouns do not gen- erally occur without a specified possessor. |

| | 20th WCP: Inalienable Rights: A Plea for Open Options |
 | | Inalienable rights are rights entailed by very basic moral principles which must be respected (except in cases where punishment is morally required or where the temporary suspension of rights is necessary for reason justified by natural lawas in cases where the social order would otherwise be irreparably damaged (viz. |  | | In my view, inalienable rights would differ from absolute rights of either description since (a) they can be overridden in extreme cases (for example, in cases where retribution, reparation or emergency measures are required), and (b) they are not contingent on specific contextual or temporal conditions. |  | | I point to several advantages of the open options account of inalienable rights, including the fact that inalienable rights construed as open options are rights that may provide grounds for calling oppressive governments to account, while at the same time protecting areas of freedom which make the possession of the rights worthwhile rather than burdensome. |

| | inalienable rights: Information From Answers.com |
 | | Inalienable rights are fundamental rights, including the right to practice religion, freedom of speech, due process, and equal protection under the laws, that cannot be transferred to another nor surrendered except by the person possessing them. |  | | The expression of inalienable rights is a variation of the term unalienable rights which has a historic point of origin in the United States Declaration of Independence. |  | | Inalienable rights are rights which are not capable of being surrendered or transferred without the consent of the one possessing such rights; e.g. |

| | About The CyberNation of Freedom - Liberation of the Individual |
 | | The first, the 'Issues of State', are those concerning the protection of the individual's inalienable rights and thus the law and order of society, and these lie within the jurisdiction of government's eight legitimate roles. |  | | We support all government regulations, permitting and licensing which explicitly act to protect the individual from bodily harm, fraud, misrepresentation, criminal activity or the creation of environmental hazards; and we are opposed to those regulations, permitting and licensing that do not. |  | | History demands that this new nation acts on behalf of the individual and does not allow the individual to be plundered by a monarchy, a ruling class, or the 'tyranny of the majority' that democracy has come to represent. |

| | Model Amici Curiae Brief to Eliminate Corporate Rights, by Richard Grossman, Thomas Alan Linzey, & Daniel E. Brannen, ... |
 | | As the Omnipoint Corporation did with the Fourteenth Amendment and the Civil Rights Act, corporations have used the courts to attack laws by wielding the authority of the Commerce and Contracts Clauses. |  | | Thus, the founding documents of the States and the United States codify the understanding that governments are instituted to secure inalienable rights possessed by people, including their right to enjoy life and liberty, and the right to pursue and obtain happiness and safety. |  | | As demonstrated in the second part of this Brief, the Commerce and Contracts Clauses are regular weapons in the arsenal of corporate constitutional rights, wielded by corporations through the Courts, to deny the inalienable rights of people to life, liberty, and property. |

 | | Obstacles in the path of a presumption favoring specific performance of all contracts may be obviated by distinguishing three kinds of contracts: contracts for external resources, contracts for personal services, and contracts for corporate services. |  | | Further, a person's consensual commitment to always obey all the commands of another (or all those commands which are lawful) might be unenforceable because it is never the case that such a commitment is conducive to the pursuit of a good life. |  | | Since a right to personal services is inalienable, persons wishing to enhance the reliability of a promise to perform personal services by means of a contract may accomplish this object by making a transfer of alienable rights (to money or other property) conditional on nonperformance. |

| | Rights are natural, inalienable and self-evident. |
 | | Inalienable rights: These are rights that cannot be taken away. |  | | Rights cannot be natural, like laws of nature, because nature enforces its laws absolutely, whereas rights are frequently broken. |  | | Likewise, inalienable rights don't meet the test of reality either. |

| | Inalienable Rights |
 | | I use the word "alienating" advisedly, because the issue is whether constitutional rights-such as the Fourth Amendment right to security against unreasonable searches and seizures-should be regarded as inalienable or not. |  | | Insistence on the inalienability of rights was a way of opposing such contracts, and it was this opposing conception-the idea of rights held in trust and the right-bearer as steward rather than owner of his rights-that triumphed in works of John Locke and the formulations of Jefferson. |  | | It means rights that may not be given away by those who have them, and therefore that no system of absolute power may ever be defended on the ground that reasonable people would have found it prudent, in certain circumstances, to alienate these rights. |

| | Declaration of Independence (United States) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Thus, the original signed copy in the National Archives reads "unalienable", but the version inscribed on the Jefferson Memorial reads "inalienable." |  | | It has also been used as the model of a number of later documents such as the declarations of independence of Vietnam and Rhodesia. |  | | Ideas and even some of the phrasing was taken directly from the writings of John Locke, particularly his Second Treatise on Government, titled "Essay Concerning the true original, extent, and end of Civil Government." In this treatise, Locke developed the important idea of government by consent. |

| | Capital Punishment |
 | | Given the context as specified above, my right to freedom is absolute, i.e., contextually absolute, inviolable, and inalienable. |  | | The problem with this viewpoint, however, is that it focuses almost exclusively on attempting to define the adjective "inalienable" and very little on the noun "rights." While he does state he does not have space to defend a theory of natural rights, I believe he errs in not offering a definition of "rights," at all. |  | | Thus, the standard which places conditions upon one's inalienable right to life is the very nature of what it means (what is required) to live as a rational, moral human being...in a social state. |

| | Communications From Elsewhere » Inalienable? |
 | | : incapable of being alienated, surrendered, or transferred rights> |  | | If they were truly inalienable rights, they’d stand on their own without defending, right? |  | | It doesn’t mean “well, under certain circumstances, maybe, if we’re not vigilant.” It means CAN’T. So the phrase “inalienable right” might be the problem - a “right” being something granted or withheld by someone else holding power (God, George Bush, lunatics, whatever.) Maybe those two words - inalienable and right - shouldn’t be linked? |

| | Cuz We Said So: Inalienable |
 | | This raises the other question: is the right to a representative government inalienable? |  | | What the Declaration of Independence implies - and what I believe - is that inalienable rights are inherently bound to our state as humans and the defense of these rights is inherently a moral activity - in fact, it is the moral activity. |  | | I am not the arbiter on this, but if any right is inalienable, I would have to say this one is. If someone knows how to challenge that assumption and wishes to do so, let him come forth. |
