Negative and Positive Security of Person

In Chapter 6 it is argued that the right to security of person correlates to both negative and positive duties. The right to security of person should not only restrain the state from threatening or putting a rights-holder’s personal interests at risk; it also requires that the state take positive measures to protect the rights-holders’ interests and values against threats and risks, whether or not these emanate from the state. Taking the capabilities approach as the ‘theory of personhood’ underlying the right, it would also require duties of facilitation and provision in situations where the capability to function is non-existent. Finally, Chapter 6 also considers the extent to which rights jurisprudence of the European Convention on Human Rights, the Canadian Charter, and the South African Bill of Rights successfully reflect the positive features of the right to security of person.
