How did Enlightenment ideas show up in the various Democratic Revolutions?

History

GrogVix [38]2 years ago

The Enlightenment period resulted in the creation of many different ideas seen in politics all across the world. A perfect example would be the concept of natural rights. Natural rights are supposed to be basic rights that all humans have. When first developed these included life, liberty, and property. This concept was seen in the French Revolution, as the Third Estate fought for the idea and used the phrase "Liberty, equality, and fraternity" to display what natural rights they had as citizens.

Another Enlightenment idea seen in democratic revolutions is the idea of the social contract. The social contract was an agreement between the people and the government that stated that citizens would give up some of their freedoms so that the government could make laws. If a government failed to own up to their end of the social contract, the citizens had a right to revolt. This is a perfect example of what happened during the American Revolution. American colonists felt that the British government was being unjust and was not ruling by the consent of the governed (aka the consent of the people) so they rebelled.

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The conflict between US and the Philippine that lasted from February 4, 1899 to July 2, 1902 is known as Philippine-American War. Although the Filipino nationalities called it struggle for independence, but US government referred to it as a rebellion.

Both American and Filipino soldiers committed atrocities towards each other, they considered Filipino as dogs and killed men, women and children.  Several reports informs us that after entering a village the soldiers used to plunder church, houses and use to rob the villagers. They even fired upon those who waved flag for signalling truce.  In many cases the Americans retaliated death of their soldiers by burning the town and killing all the natives.
