Detailed Explanation & Solution
In Lawrence Kohlberg's theory of moral development, the fifth stage of the Post-Conventional Level is called 'Social Contract and Individual Rights'.

If a law goes against the fundamental rights or human welfare of a group, it can be amended through a democratic process.
