The correct answer is letter A.
Explanation: The people of France led to the abolition of the absolute monarchy and the establishment of the first French Republic. Just six weeks after the Bastille assault, and just three weeks after the abolition of feudalism, a Declaration of Human and Citizen's Rights, that was adopted by the National Constituent Assembly as the first step in writing a constitution for the Republic of France.
The Declaration proclaims that all citizens must be guaranteed the rights of âfreedom, property, security, and resistance to oppressionâ. This argues that the necessity of the law stems from the fact that â⌠the exercise of each man's natural rights has only those boundaries which ensure that other members of society enjoy these same rightsâ. Therefore, the Declaration sees the law as âan expression of the general willâ, which is intended to promote this equality of rights and to prohibit âonly actions harmful to societyâ.
