It can become used to defend securing for the human being and what they need in order to properly functional as rational beings. Brian Orend, a Canadian philosopher, in his philosophy Human Rights: Concept and Context, he begins to develop his idea in the direction of human rights. Brian Orend states to respect human beings as an end to have the respect of the interest in the being able to protect against the grievous harm. Harm has become understood as the loss or the non- possession of the goods that help to fulfill the vital human needs. Brian Orend names five vital needs that, he begins to claim that are common to all human beings. If the needs were not able to become met at a basic level, we could not function as rational beings. The five are security, subsistence, recognition, freedom, and equality. It has become of interest to me to compare Brian Orend list to the list of Martha Nussbaum's list of the basic capabilities in which the human rights have entitled us to. Human rights, are the entitlements that we have that are located in five areas. In Orend's approach he helps to explain the list of human rights that are found in the Universal Declaration of the Human Rights that has become adopted by the United Nations including the United States in the late 1940's. The list of the human rights in the Universal Declaration has become much larger than five, although most of the rights can become derived from the further specification from Orend's five basic concepts. Orend's approach begins to fit well with the idea that a person cannot distinguish between the negative rights and the positive rights because even the negative rights for example, the right not to become killed are positive in the sense that they call upon the different institutions to help to provide aid for potential victims and their loved ones to do what they can, if the cost to themselves
