The Rights of Man

The Rights of Man is a political and philosophical treatise written by Thomas Paine. Published in 1791, it argues for the inherent rights of all individuals, including the right to self-government and the right to resist oppression. Paine asserts that these rights are not granted by governments or rulers, but are inherent to all human beings. He also critiques the British monarchy and the aristocracy, arguing that they are oppressive and do not represent the interests of the people. The book was highly influential in its time, and is considered a cornerstone of modern political thought. It continues to be studied and debated by scholars and activists around the world.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1906 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
