What Is It
As citizens, we always think of the promotion of the common good or general
welfare. To become a responsible citizen, there is a need to promote the common
good such as obeying the law, volunteering in the community, paying taxes honestly,
informing himself about important political issues, and respecting the rights of others.
He or she is willing to sacrifice his individual interests for the collective good of the
nation. This is called inclusive citizenship in which the citizens are given a strong
feeling that they are a part of the overall society. By making the citizens feel that the
government values their viewpoints, the people are then motivated to participate in the
elections, civic participation, and military service.

Human rights are inalienable rights that protect people’s dignity as human
beings. These give them the rights to choose, to live, to love, to property, to make their
living, to practice one’s profession, to vote and to be voted, among others. These
assure people the means to fulfill their basic needs. By guaranteeing life, liberty,
equality, and security, human rights protect people against abuse by those who are
more powerful.

Human Dignity is referred to as an individual or group's sense of self-respect

and self-worth, physical and psychological integrity and empowerment. It is stated in
the United Nations’ declaration of human rights the recognition of the inherent dignity
and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members in the society.

As cited by Saluba, Dennis J. et. al. (2016), deviance is inevitable. Henceforth,

human dignity, rights and common good should be righteously extended to deviants
by the society itself. Even if the person is a deviant and a criminal, he or she should
be respected and treated justly as a human being. Violating his or her rights means
treating him or her inhumanely. Accordingly, the common good is espoused with
human rights that provides benefits to the society.

In the principles of Human rights, human dignity and common good advocate
the belief in the inherent dignity and worth of every human being.

Human Rights Education is a means towards social change; a tool to transform the
theory and practical applications into everyday social practice.
Civil rights deal with standards of judiciary and penal systems.
Political rights deal with specific components of participation in political power.
Economic rights deal with the sphere of human beings working, producing and
servicing.
Social rights deal with standard of living and quality of life for all persons, including
those not participating in economic activities.
Cultural rights deal with the cultural sphere of life including ethnic culture,
subcultures, arts and science.

The international community must treat human rights globally in a fair and equal
manner, on the same footing, and with the same emphasis.

Summary

Socialization takes place when prospective culture bearers learn the

body of knowledge and skills through education, training, exposure, and
experience; while enculturation, occurs when cultural knowledge is passed on
to the next bearer who will perpetuate and ensure the continuation of culture.
Both socialization and enculturation result to identity formation, developing
norms and values, and statuses and roles:
One conforms if he or she chooses a course of action that a majority
favors or that which is socially acceptable. Oppositely, the person deviates
when he or she performs a course of action that is not socially acceptable or
that majority finds unfavorable.

Social control as the techniques and strategies for preventing deviant

behavior n any society.

Social deviance is any behavior that differs or diverges from established social
norms.
* serves as outlet for diverse forms of expressions
* serves to define the limits of acceptable behavior
* may promote in-group solidarity

A responsible citizen needs to promote the common good such as obeying

the law, volunteering in the community, paying taxes honestly, informing himself
about important political issues, and respecting the rights of others. He or she is
willing to sacrifice his individual interests for the collective good of the nation. This
is called inclusive citizenship

It is stated in the United Nations’ declaration of human rights the

recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all
members in the society.
