As a propagandist‚ Thomas Paine‚ author of Rights of Man‚ does not account in the passage in question for the complexities of America and simplifies the task of balancing individual rights with the ideals of society. America’s lack of unison‚ its inability to resolve tensions between society and the individual‚ and its economic disparity has prevented Paine’s presentation of American society from developing into a realistic portrayal of the country. While American society has been plagued with social

In Rights of Man‚ Thomas Paine extols America for its unique attributes of harmony‚ freedom‚ liberty‚ and diversity. These attributes intertwine together and serve as a recipe for one unified country based on privileges and rights for all Americans. Paine’s image of America was slightly skewed in the late 18th century‚ but holds true especially in today’s day and age. Over the past two centuries‚ change and reform have transformed the nation into one which provides equality to all regardless of color

America and want to support its causes and freedoms? Paine is a prime example of support. Although shackled by the King of England‚ Paine is a firm believer in the freedom of America and their way of life. Throughout the passage from his book‚ Rights Of A Man‚ he discusses the diversity of America: so many people‚ languages‚ religions‚ ways of life. The list is never ending. Paine’s characterization of the “Land of Liberty” in 1791 continues to hold true today‚ for over two centuries‚ and the multitude

I agree that the Rights of Man addressed specific grievances rather than vaguely outlining the rights of all humans. In the Articles‚ currently hostile conflicts were mentioned and resolved as well as issues of class and supplemented ideologies that the people of France knew and accepted. The declaration addressed conflicts relevant at the time. An example of this is Article 3‚ where it says‚ “The principle of all sovereignty resides essentially in the nation.

Although that list may be long‚ three stand out to me: Pablo Popovitch‚ submission wrestling world champion and my teacher‚ Arnold Schwarzenegger‚ former Mr. Olympia‚ Hollywood

Thomas Paine Timed Writing Thomas Paine claims‚ in “Rights of Man”‚ that America is an unexpected union of different people‚ religions‚ and cultures. The essence of Paine’s argument is that America is a land where people of all cultures and races can live together under one government and one Constiution. I agree with Paine because these principles hold true today in American society. America is filled with “people from different nations‚ accustomed to different life forms and habits of government…”
