Sobre IBD

Thomas Paine’s 'Rights of Man' posits that popular political revolution is permissible when a government does not safeguard its people, their natural rights, and their national interests. Using these points as a base it defends the French Revolution against Edmund Burke’s attack in 'Reflections on the Revolution in France.'
