Suaro Burke dalam pamflet ko diwakili surang mudo Parancih nan mamintak tolong untuak mampatahanan pamarintahan aristokratik, paternalistik, jo bakaturunan diparintah rajo-rajo.[3][2]

[suntiang | suntiang sumber]

Wollstonecraft mamintak panabiknyo, Joseph Jonson, untuak dapek capek manabikkan pamflet ko.[6] Dalam memoirnyo tantang Wollstonecraft, Godwin mancataik baso naskah-naskah pamflet ko masih sadang ditulih katiko lansuang dikirim ka pacetakan.

Struktur jo isi

[suntiang | suntiang sumber]

Gayo panulisan Rights of Men maniru banyak gayo panulisan Burke di Reflections, yaitu dalam bantuak surek: Burke manulih pado surang mudo Parancih, dan Wollstonecraft manulih ka Burke.[10] Dek sabab modenyo sabagai sabuah pamflet politik, Rights of Men indak punyo struktur nan jaleh, sainggo acok dianggap indak beres, indak jaleh, indak logis, dan panuah jo sarangan ad hominem.[11][12]

Wollstonecraft mangacam gagasan tantang pangkek jo hierarki manusia nan diajuan Burke.[13] Inyo mangkritik kareh sikap Burke nan maremehan rakyat banyak dan mandukuang kaum elit cando Marie Antoinette. Wollstonecraft bapandangan baso surang manusia harus dinilai malalui kamampuannyo, bukan malalui katurunan.[14] Inyo mandukuang gagasan sabuah masyarakat dagang nan dapek mambantu surang manusia mamanuahan potensi dirinyo masiang-masiang dan manyalasaian tangguangjawabnyo sabagai surang warga nagara.[15]

Wollstonecraft bapandangan baso ideologi republikanisme labiah rancak dibandiangan monarki, dek sabab republikanisme dapek manjamin kamakmuran jo kabahagiaan urang banyak, bukan anyo pado urang-urang nan punyo tanah atau harato.[16] Nan mambedan Wollstonecraft adolah gagasannyo tantang paran kaluarga sabagai tampek mananaman nilai-nilai republikan paliang awal, dan nilai-nilai kaluarga sabagai dasar dari nilai-nilai publik.[17] Iko beda jo ide tokoh republikan nan lain cando Godwin atau Francis Hutcheson.[18]

Jikok Burke bapandangan baso masyarakat dan pamarintah harus baaka pado tradisi nan alah ado sajak zaman daulu, Wollstonecraft bapandapek baso sadoalah konsensus dalam bamasyarakat dapek dipareso ulang sacaro logis. Inyo bapandangan baso tradisi indak harus dianggap dalam hukum atau dalam undang-undang dasar, sainggo hak-hak manusia harus diagiahan dek karano inyo masuak aka, bukannyo dek karano alah manjadi tradisi dalam masyarakat sajak lamo.[19][11]
