People, even to the extent that personhood is a process which includes high levels of socialisation through language, culture, and norms of behaviour, still exist as independent bodies. This is an ontological fact. Individual consciousness expresses its will throughout active control of this body, as much as the will can do so (the body's limitations represent the limit of the will).
Recognising this independence is a foundation of isocracy. The existence of the self, the combination of the mind and body as an individual whole, also means recognition that other people are in the same situation. The recognition of individual liberty in the self also must mean the recognition of the same liberties in others. Through this reciprocity, personal liberty extends into a social right which is applied equally to all.
Moral and social philosophy is very much in agreement to with this principle. It is certainly something that had been embodied, albeit with difficulty at times, in liberal theory. Rather famouly, John Locke remarked:
"Though the Earth, and all inferior Creatures be common to all Men, yet every Man has a Property in his own Person. This no Body has any Right to but himself. The Labour of his Body, and the Work of his Hands, we may say, are properly his." (John Locke, Two Treatises of Government, Second Treatise, Section 27, 1689).
We can return to the issues of what is called "inferior Creatures", the common ownership of the Earth, and right of full return from labour throughout this book.
Martha Nussbaum expresses this as a form of social justice, deriving from the capability approach of welfare economics of Amartya Sen, with a particular emphasis on justice for women: "Being able to move freely from place to place; being able to be secure against violent assault; having opportunities for sexual satisfaction and for choice in matters of reproduction" (Martha C. Nussbaum, "Sex and Social Justice", Oxford University Press, 1999. 41-42.)
As a whole, this comes down to a matter of body politics, the issue of who controls whose body and what are the justifications for doing so. The principle of Isocracy means self-ownership, full and exclusive right and responsibility over oneself for adults of adult-reasoning, and by extension, consensus in participation.
We are advocates of free speech, within the limits of defamation etc, following Rosa Luxemburg's "Freiheit ist immer Freiheit der Andersdenkenden", ("Freedom is always the freedom for dissenters"), and even includes "destructive" rights (e.g., voluntary euthanasia), as long as third party expert assessment declares the individual as being compos mentis.
We support reproductive rights.
We are opposed to the death penalty, under all circumstances. We support voluntary euthanasia.
Critique: some also argue that the right to life and/or the right not to be killed overrules the right to absolute bodily autonomy
