Rights and Power. Xxxxxxxx’x capabilities will require institutional force to implement them. Rights, like the capabilities, require some force to back them, since otherwise they are just unenforceable ‘opinions’. Spinoza writes, “In the state of nature each is so long independent as he can guard against oppression by another, and it is in vain for one man alone to try and guard against all, it follows hence that so long as the natural right of man is determined by the power of every individual, and belongs to everyone, so long is it a nonentity, existing in opinion rather than in fact, as there is no assurance of making it good.” 462 The commonwealth only has the right to implement those things which it has the power to enforce. 463 The commonwealth can use hope or fear, the affects of the multitude to enforce laws.

Spinoza argued that right was coextensive with power, both for individuals and for governments, and for that matter, for organizations like NGOs. Individuals increase their right as they increase their power; they increase their power through joining together. 464 462 TP 2.15 463 TP 3.8 464 TP 2.15 General rights are created through agreement among a group of individuals to live, as if guided by one mind, that is, by a set of rules for living, through common government. 465 Spinoza writes, “Where men have general rights and all are g...
