A Vindication of the Rights of Men is a political treatise written by Mary Wollstonecraft in response to Edmund Burke's Reflections on the Revolution in France. Wollstonecraft argues that all men are created equal and have natural rights to life, liberty, and property. She also criticizes the monarchy and aristocracy, arguing that they are based on privilege and inequality. Wollstonecraft's work was a radical and influential contribution to the debate over the French Revolution and the rights of man.
