Contrasting Viewpoints on the Nature of Rights: Liberalism vs. Social Community

In exploring the concept of rights, contrasting viewpoints emerge between liberal ideologies emphasizing individual freedoms, as articulated by figures like Milton Friedman and Thomas Hobbes, and a more community-oriented approach represented by thinkers like Petrus Naxchau. Liberalism highlights individual freedom from coercion, viewing the state as a protector of individual rights. Alternatively, the social community perspective views government as integral to humanity's social nature, aiming to promote order and collaboration.
