Right, Civil Right, Human Right

The Enlightenment concept of Right is that of protection against interference.  Hence, it is essentially an Individuating factor, typically advanced as a precondition for a social contract.  Now, most of the features of the 20th-century concept of Human Rights are, similarly, protective, with one notable novelty--the "right to an adequate standard of living", as is formulated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which, as implicitly addressed to a society, and, hence, to its members, functions as a integrative factor it.  King implicitly recognizes the significance of this development in a 1967 speech, in which he calls for a move "from Civil Rights to Human Rights", on the grounds that the former, as a promotion of Individuality, is a necessary, but not a sufficient, condition of the Democracy that he envisages.  Likewise, that Right is another indication of the emergence of the concept of Species-Being as a determinant of social interaction.
