Abstract Important ways of using the term moral rights (or human rights or natural rights) can be captured if moral rights are contrasted with legal rights. Legal rights are artifacts of a legal process. Whatever moral rights are, they are not that. Rather, a claim of moral right is a claim about what legal rights people ought to have.
