Written in the language of common speech, Rights Rights of Man, his greatest and most widely read work, is considered a classic statement of faith in democracy and egalitarianism.The first part of this document, dedicated to George Washington, appeared in 1791. Defending the early events of the French Revolution, it spoke on behalf of democracy, equality, and a new European order. Part Two, which appeared the following year, is perhaps Paine's finest example of political pamphleteering and an exemplary work that supported social security for workers, public employment for those in need of work, abolition of laws limiting wages, and other social reforms.

Mr. Paine espouses a seminal work necessary in the political arena but also writes a bit naively as to the application of the said system of government by not taking into account human nature. I do not believe a man can create any system that will systematically prevent man's desires for wealth and power to not come to fruition of any man-made system. While some system may be devised to prevent corruption via one man the same system, with a number of men who are just as corruptable within it, is prone to failing to achieve its high design.This scenario may be seen in the actual forms of the republican i.e, constitutional approach and the various Marxist's communist approach that exist today. In our American constitutional method offices exist today in a form that was not allowed for or, naively, expected by the drafters of our system. This is seen in the offices of Representatives and Senators who earn an annual salary, pension, and medical privileges. Originally, as is indicated in Mr. Paine's work and elsewhere, permanent office and amenities were a luxury afforded officers of a monarchy's court. In the American system, it was expected, though not defined in writing, which was a serious mistake, that representatives and Senators served of their own accord, yes, elected by the people, and only compensated for their expenses, not a substantial income. It was may also be seen that it was thought and expected, though not defined in writing, that representation in both houses would naturally rotate from citizen to citizen and not produce life-time political positions with a pension and full medical care. The position of president was the only office for which annual compensation was expected and allowed and even that position was not allowed or expected to receive any type of a pension. These are not the only alterations to the system initially devised. They are just some of the most obvious.A similar process occurred in the various applications of Marx's communist system, which in its present form operates almost identically to a monarchical government, creating some of the worst tyrannical dictatorial systems man has yet known. Of course, communist systems do not look like the opulent monarchical system but opulence is the only difference. In present-day communism there is just as much class structure as ever there was in any monarchical system of government. It is not the single man that must be prevented from exercising corruption, it is an alliance of men hell-bent on exercising corruption that must, somehow, be prevented in any ideological system man might create. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Paine's Rights of Man makes for a Sluggish Read *by A***L on Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2018* Paine's Rights of Man offers many of his observations about the nature of freedom and government. It is largely a repudiation of Burke's divine right of Kings. Paine delves into painstaking detail on particulars of the English system of Monarchy and Paine's disdain of the Parliamentary system, both as to the deficiency of its representative system in the House of Commons and the tyranny and entitlement of the House of Lords. Numerous pages are devoted to now irrelevant analysis of taxes and expenditures that are quite boring and can be quickly scanned. Plenty of insights about the role of government and the Rights of Man permeate the early part of the book. Not my favorite of Paine's writings, there are frankly more fruitful books to read. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Rights of Man *by T***O on Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2020* While Paine’s hopes for the course of the revolution in France would soon be shattered by the terror and Napoleon, over the longer arc of history his focus on the revolutions in America and France were more profound than might appear.His commentary in fact is the common sense of the Revolutions of 1848, the late nineteenth century and the twentieth century, when a liberal international order began to emerge out of the ashes of the Second World War. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/187393544-the-rights-of-man](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/187393544-the-rights-of-man) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
