  1) What are some concepts that help us to distinguish what is a positive right and what should be considered a normative right? Is there a grey area? Are there some normative rights that should be considered as legal or positive rights? Why?
  
  
  In this chapter, Stone talks about how a normative definition of rights may bring about controversy in policy making and may also challenge legal rights.
  2) How might it be possible for a normative meanings of rights to challenge legal rights? How do we determine in policy which rights are more important than others? Should some override others? Use examples if needed.
