Thomas Paine, undeterred by the government campaign to discredit him, issues his Rights of Man, Part the Second, Combining Principle and Practice in February 1792.

It details a representative government with enumerated social programs to remedy the numbing poverty of commoners through progressive tax measures.

Radically reduced in price to ensure unprecedented circulation, it is sensational in its impact and gives birth to reform societies.
