  1. (in the US) the rights of each state in relation to the national government, such as the right to make some laws and to have its own police force
    CultureStates' rights are held under the 10th Amendment to the American constitution. The rights include the right of each state to have its own criminal laws, laws regarding commerce and taxes, and laws on education, health and social welfare, and also the right to have its own police force. The principle of states' rights is supported by those who think that the central government should not be too involved in state affairs. It has been supported especially by the states in the South, five of which voted for the States' Rights Party in the 1948 election for President. There has been much argument in US history over the division of responsibility between state and national governments. In recent years the national government has given more rights to the states.
