When Rights Conflict

The paper investigates why impartiality or rationality are ideals worth striving for. It deals not only with an inquiry into normative ethical search for valid moral principles, but also for the meaning of key meta-ethical concepts such as “ autonomy” and “ rights” . The portrait of the ideal moral judgment plays an important role in the examination of both: our own views and the views of others. Bioethical genuine quest for a correct method all moral agents ought morally to be guided while answering moral questions, refers to the conviction that coming as close as possible to fulfilling the ideal moral judgment is rational. Rights themselves are distinctive moral “ commodities” , that is, to have a right to anything means to have a very strong moral and legal claim upon it. It is the strongest of all moral claims that all men can assert. Since human rights must be possessed by all human beings and only by human beings, it would be irrational to distinguish among persons, deny human equity and preserve rights only for the few. Rights entail objects and areas within which every human being is entitled to act without further permission or assent. Some philosophers point out to the important connection between the goals of normative ethics and the concept of an ideal moral judgment. The approach to moral questions must be free from fault and error and other objections raised against the considered method in placing a justified limit on how others may treat the person possessing the right.
