-'''Civil liberties''' concern basic rights and freedoms that are guaranteed in a democratic society. The constitutions of many democracies have bills of rights that describe basic liberties and rights. Civil liberties guarantee a person against government interference except when a person affects other people by exercising his/her liberties. Then the courts of law in a democratic country interpret the limits of civil liberties.<ref>The Cato Institute [http://www.cato.org/current/civil-liberties/index.html]</ref>
