Sentient Rights

Sentient rights is a moral principle that states all sentient beings are entitled to basic rights and legal protections. These rights are understood as inherent and inalienable, and applicable to any species that reaches a threshold level of sentience regardless of its planet of origin or stage of development. This doctrine influenced the establishment of the [Fair Chance Act](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/RXlXmnaYGP-fair-chance-act), which serves to codify sentient rights within [United Empire of Earth (UEE)](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/VyvyKxy4v6-united-empire-of-earth) law.

Empfindungsrechte sind ein moralisches Prinzip, das besagt, dass alle empfindungsfähigen Wesen Anspruch auf grundlegende Rechte und gesetzlichen Schutz haben. Diese Rechte werden als inhärent und unveräußerlich verstanden und gelten für jede Spezies, die einen Schwellenwert an Empfindungsfähigkeit erreicht, unabhängig von ihrem Herkunftsplaneten oder Entwicklungsstadium. Diese Doktrin beeinflusste die Einführung des [Fair Chance Act](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/RXlXmnaYGP-fair-chance-act), der dazu dient, die Rechte von empfindungsfähigen Wesen im [United Empire of Earth (UEE)](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/VyvyKxy4v6-united-empire-of-earth) Gesetz zu kodifizieren.
