'Entitlement' is a guarantee of access to benefits because of rights, or by agreement through law. It can also refer, in a more casual sense to someone's belief that he/she is deserving of some particular reward or benefit.[1] It is often used as a negative term in popular parlance (i.e. a 'sense of entitlement'). The legal term, however, carries no value judgment: it simply denotes a right granted. It was issued in 1965 by President Johnson's administration.
In 2007, approximately 2/3 of the United States Federal budget consisted of entitlement payments.
In Land Development, the Entitlement Process is the legal method of obtaining approvals for the right to develop property for a desired use. (example: Re-zone)
In computer security, it can also refer to access control.
