Declaration of the Rights of Man (1789)1. Men are born and remain free and equal in rights. Social distinctions may be founded only upon the general good.

2. The aim of all political association is the preservation of the natural and imprescriptible rights of man. These rights are liberty, property, security, and resistance to oppression.

3. The principle of all sovereignty resides essentially in the nation. No body nor individual may exercise any authority which does not proceed directly from the nation.

4. Liberty consists in the freedom to do everything which injures no one else; hence the exercise of the natural rights of each man has no limits except those which assure to the other members of the society the enjoyment of the same rights. These limits can only be determined by law.

5. Law can only prohibit such actions as are hurtful to society. Nothing may be prevented which is not forbidden by law, and no one may be forced to do anything not provided for by law.

6. Law is the expression of the general will. Every citizen has a right to participate personally, or through his representative, in its foundation. It must be the same for all, whether it protects or punishes. All citizens, being equal in the eyes of the law, are equally eligible to all dignities and to all public positions and occupations, according to their abilities, and without distinction except that of their virtues and talents.

Review1) Ancien Régime (absolute

monarchs): Nobles gaining power in UK (spreading ideas across to Europe), monarchs however still strongly in power in Europe.

2) Enlightenment (Age of Reasoning, 1600-1800): Start of Modern Era when reasoning/logic was widely applied all things. FAITH THAT HUMANS THROUGH REASONING CAN MAKE LIFE BETTER (MAKE GOV BETTER).

Review American Revolution (1776): 13 British

colonies complain:1) UK taxes to pay for colonial security,

NOTE: UK won French and Indian War (1754-1763), France humiliating loss of colonies (Canada).

2) No representation in UK Parliament (all poor in UK and many cities not yet represented either though)

3) Limits on western expansion: King George as an Enlightenment philo try to help Nat. Americans by limiting colonists

Review The year is 1789….Absolute Monarchy: France’s king had total

control (divine right from God). Enlightenment: Philosophers spread ideas of

equal rights for man (Gov + church try to stop it)

Limited Monarchy: England’s (UK) king has already been constitutionally limited by parliament (legislature/assembly)

American Revolution: US had successfully rebelled from England with France’s (King Louis XVI) help.
