Natural Rights- rights, freedoms and privileges which are such a basic part of human nature that they cannot be taken away.

Social Rights- An agreement among the members of an organized society or between the governed and the government defining and limiting the rights and duties of each.

Rights of Revolution- a right or duty, variously stated throughout history, possessed by subjects of a state that justifies their action to overthrow the government to whom the subjects otherwise would owe allegiance.

Popular Sovereignty- a doctrine in political theory that government is created by and subject to the will of the people.

Self Determination- free choice of one’s own acts without external compulsion; and especially as the freedom of the people of a given territory to determine their own political status.

I put these terms in order which means Natural Rights come first. Natural Rights are the most important because it is the freedom of human. Humans are aloud to be free and not be owned and work for free without willing of. Social rights are also important or else their will be total chaos in the world.
