Answer:
Natural law is a fundamental concept in political ideologies and philosophy. Natural law refers to the notion that there are absolute legal principles inherent in human nature, either of divine origin or with non-religious explanations. Natural law are rights and obligations that are considered natural, universally valid for all times and peoples, and that should take precedence over the temporary laws enacted by states, such as the rights to life and liberty. It also forms the historical basis for human rights, democracy, the abolition of torture and the death penalty, and the constitutions of several countries, and is an important concept in discussions about the legitimation of power, state formation, ownership and the laws of war.
