There were several ways in which the Lincoln Administration limited civil liberties during the War of the Rebellion. Firstly Habeas Corpus was suspended, meaning that persons deemed unloyal to the Union could be arrested and jailed without showing due cause or charges (habeas Corpus). Secondly civil law was suspended in those areas of the South under Union Control and placed under martial law. Censorship was imposed on several newspapers and journalists, although in practice this proved to be difficult to enforce. Restrictions on commerce were enacted and enforced. These are just a few of the ways civil liberties were circumvented during the Civil War.

Political rights, on the other hand, relate to participation in the political process, such as the right to vote or run for office. In essence, civil rights guarantee equality and protection under the law, while political rights enable individuals to have a voice in shaping that law.

The American Civil War was about the attempted secession of certain states from the Union; if any rights were established by that war, it is the right of the US to prohibit any state from seceding.
