Formal and effective rights

Formal and effective rights refers to the distinction between the theoretical rights of legalism and the measurable rights within implemented policies.[1] It is argued that the gap between the two concepts stems from the difficulties in realising the theoretical concepts into manageable effective rights. Also, while there is a greater consensus regarding the formal rights, due partly on diplomacy motives, the actual implementation process is much more complex.
