Answer:

Civil liberties are essentially 'negative' political rights that stand as shields against state actions and infringements, whereas human rights may include (depending upon the theorist or political posture) these claims as well as broader claims to such things as social and economic rights, cultural rights

Human rights are like armour: they protect you; they are like rules, because they tell you how you can behave; and they are like judges, because you can appeal to them. They are abstract – like emotions; and like emotions, they belong to everyone and they exist no matter what happens.

They are like nature because they can be violated; and like the spirit because they cannot be destroyed. Like time, they treat us all in the same way – rich and poor, old and young, white and black, tall and short. They offer us respect, and they charge us to treat others with respect. Like goodness, truth and justice, we may sometimes disagree about their definition, but we recognise them when we see them.
