The language of rights is utilized frequently in debates over
contemporary social issues-a fetus's "right to life" versus a
woman's "right to choose," for example. Because these debates
pertain to what our social policies should be, it is clear that the
rights in question are moral rights, and that existing legal rights
ought to be changed or maintained accordingly. The problem,
however, is that moral rights require moral justification. In
Conflicts of Rights, John Rowan takes this next step, and
investigates possible moral justifications for rights alleged to
exist in four contexts: abortion, affirmative action, welfare, and
pornography freedoms. In doing so, he reaches conclusions about the
morally appropriate policy for each issue, and also about the
effectiveness of rights language in general.
