Question

Pick the correct statement.

• A. Rules imposed by society upon its members and enforced by public censure fall under the law of positive morality.
• B. Legal justice and natural justice do not represent intersecting circles.
• C. International law is a conventional law.
• D. None of the above is correct

Hint:

Positive morality = socially enforced norms; positive law = state-enforced rules.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Positive morality.
It refers to social rules enforced by opinion/social pressure (not by the State). Hence (a) is correct.
Step 2: Why others are incorrect.
(b) Legal and natural justice overlap; they are not disjoint.
(c) International law is sourced both from custom and conventions; calling it only “conventional” is inaccurate.
(d) False because (a) is correct. \[ \boxed{(a)} \]
