2024 Freedom of Thought Conference: Panel 3 - Securing the Rights of a Free People
What responsibility do states have in protecting the rights of their citizens? How should we think about rights like the freedom of speech — do rights operate primarily as a limit on government power, or do they protect the natural rights of the citizen?

How were rights defended and enforced?
