When Rights Are Wrong
By Donald Demarco, Crisis, April 30, 2021
There are few topics that are of greater importance than “rights.” At the same time, the topic of rights has been egregiously misunderstood and fraudulently represented. What are rights? Are they the exclusive domain of human beings? What is the basis of a right? How can rights be protected? Can there be rights without duties? These are certainly important questions, though their answers are often confusing and contradictory.
How, then, do Schulz and Raman justify the rights they claim to be rights? “These are rights,” they argue, “because the international community has recognized them to be integral to the common good, to a good society.

We will strive to put community at the center of our identity by incorporating the funding of local causes, both social and environmental, into its basic operating model by serving trend-setting beer and fostering an environment where all are welcome.
I woke up to another shooting headline today. Something is terribly wrong. I donât dare numb out the horror of what is happening in our country, and yet, itâs so horrible that if I allow myself to dwell too much on it, Iâm paralyzed by heartbreak and fear. The reality is that people of all ages are dying every day in the most common of places. Iâve spent hours trying to understand it. How can you just walk in the door of a grocery store, a school, a hospital, and shoot to kill? I canât make sense of it.

The Good Society respond to the premise that current versions of socialism and democratic capitalism fail to offer workable visions of a good society and seem increasingly to contradict such basic values as liberty, democracy, equality, and environmental sustainability. The journal publishes outstanding dialectical articles on the pressing political, social, religious, and legal questions facing twenty-first-century society and aims to create a theoretical basis for the eventual restructuring of real world political-economic systems.
