""Dissertations on First Principles of Government"" is a political treatise written by the influential American revolutionary thinker and writer, Thomas Paine. Originally published in 1795, this book offers a comprehensive analysis of the core principles of government and the nature of political power. Paine argues that government should be based on reason and justice, rather than on inherited privilege or arbitrary authority. He also emphasizes the importance of individual rights and freedoms, and the need for a system of checks and balances to prevent the abuse of power. Throughout the book, Paine draws on examples from history and contemporary politics to illustrate his points and make his case. This work is considered a classic of political theory and has had a significant impact on the development of democratic thought and practice around the world.There are however some things deducible from reason, and evidenced by experience, that serve to guide our decision upon the case. The one is never to invest any individual with extraordinary power; for besides his being tempted to misuse it, it will excite contention and commotion in the nation for the office. Secondly, never to invest power long in the hands of any number of individuals.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Written in part as a theoretical reply to the stodgy conservatism of Edmund Burke's Reflections on the French Revolution (1790), Paine's Rights of Man (1791-92) sets forth a manifesto of popular democratic rule in the established tradition of John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau. In it Paine offers a discussion of the nature of political man and proceeds to encourage the grass-roots revolutionary movements that seek to analyze critically and, where necessary, reform or replace social and political institutions, many of which tend only to repress those whom they were initially designed to serve.Paine's enthusiasm, courage, and boundless commitment to reason are the intellectual rapiers that strike impressive blows for the defense of freedom and for the self-determination of all persons. His dedication to liberty is not so blind as to endorse reform uncritically.In Part II of Rights of Man Paine does set himself against those who would rebel for the mere sake of rebellion. Revolution must contain within its being not only the displacement of the previous regime but also a rationally formulated alternative that will meet the needs of the people.

In a young nation facing financial hardships, oppressive laws, and violence, Thomas Paine advocates for freedom, and helps to kickstart the American Revolution. Common Sense by Thomas Paine is said to be one of the major influences on Americäs decision to rebel against Great Britain, as Paine was among the first to present the thought of revolution in an intellectual medium.
