Q2) How is the concept of moral right central to the principle-based ethical tradition?
Answer: The concept of a moral right is central to the principle-based ethical tradition since the inherent dignity of each individual means that we cannot do just anything we choose to another person. Moral rights protect individuals from being treated in ways that would violate their dignity and that would treat them as mere objects or means. Moral rights imply that some acts and some decisions are "off-limits." Accordingly, our fundamental moral duty (the "categorical imperative") is to respect the fundamental moral rights of others. Our rights establish limits on the decisions and authority of others.
