Yes - thia debate as to whether the 'society' should insist on rights or duties is quite a universal tussel. Comte's stand that it is 'duties' that the society in concerned about is quite logical because .. the individual psychological tendency is more readily inclined towards entitiling and empowering oneself as 'indidviduals' and that at the neglect or the expense of the others around - particularly those who have rendered their 'duties' towards the indidviduals in questionm. In other words those wjo are insisting upon 'others duties' are in other words asking for their own rights or that of the family/communeighborhood or community vis a vis the 'excessive or ahead of time claims'' of rights by those individuals.
