In all the texts on which human rights are discussed, it is recognized that the positive law is based on the understanding of natural rights. Natural rights are the untransferable rights that people have from birth. The positive law claims to end anarchy or irregularity in societies where natural rights apply. In this way, a number of natural rights will be restricted and new rights will be created by the human hand.  This will create a regular society. Jeremy Bentham, whom we study his opinions in our study, is opposed to natural rights. It is difficult to limit natural rights. Therefore, the basis of positive law should not be natural rights. Bentham says that the French conflict, which is an important step in the issue of human rights, is not able to solve the issue in full. Our study discusses the reasons for Bentham’s opposition to natural rights and the principles that Bentham tries to retain.
