The right is founded in the freedom of the individual and cannot be considered as something collectively made up. It has no external reason. The positive law which enables the public realization of freedom and therefore can be understood as a gift of God is compulsory upon everybody. At the same time it depends on the consent of the individual. There is no right without consciousness of right and so without conscience.
