The Inalienable Rights Of Man (1900)

The Inalienable Rights of Man, written by John Rankin Rogers in 1900, is a book that explores the concept of natural rights and their importance in society. The author argues that these rights, such as the right to life, liberty, and property, are inherent to all individuals and cannot be taken away by any government or authority.Rogers examines the origins of these rights, tracing them back to the Enlightenment era and the works of philosophers such as John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau. He also discusses their role in the American Revolution and the founding of the United States, where they were enshrined in the Declaration of Independence.Throughout the book, Rogers emphasizes the importance of protecting these rights and ensuring that they are not violated by those in power. He argues that any government or society that fails to recognize and uphold these rights is fundamentally flawed and unjust.Overall, The Inalienable Rights of Man is a compelling exploration of the concept of natural rights and their significance in modern society. It is a must-read for anyone interested in political philosophy, human rights, or the history of Western thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
