Based on human rights or duties?
Ancient Law Codes
Which are the bases for the Code of Ur-Nammu?
Human rights or duties?
Gemini-Bard's reply:
The Code of Ur-Nammu is primarily based on duties.
It focuses on the responsibilities of individuals and the state, rather than emphasizing individual rights.
This is a common characteristic of ancient legal systems, which often placed a greater emphasis on social order and the obligations of individuals to their communities.
While there are some references to individual rights, such as the right to property, these rights are often presented as part of one's duties to the community.
For example, a person's right to property is often tied to their responsibility to use that property wisely and to contribute to the well-being of the community.
