Article 1: "As far as rights are concerned, everyone is born free and equal. Only in the use of the public can social differences be manifested. " This affirms the equality of rights between people in principle, which means opposing feudal privileges and feudal hierarchy. Article 2: "These rights are freedom, property, security and resistance to oppression." Clearly pointed out that human rights are personal freedom, property rights and the right to resist oppression, emphasizing that human rights are innate and inalienable. Article 6: "All citizens of the country have the right to participate in the formulation of laws in person or through their representatives. The law is the same for all people, whether to protect or punish them. All citizens are equal before the law. " This article not only puts forward the slogan that everyone is equal before the law, but also embodies the bourgeois idea that "the people are in the people". Article 8: "No one shall be punished except as prescribed by law". This article points out that we should act according to law. Article 10: "As long as expressing opinions does not interfere with public order stipulated by law, no one may be interfered with because of his opinions, even religious opinions." This article affirms the freedom of speech, religion and personal inviolability of the bourgeoisie. Article 12: "The protection of human rights requires the armed forces; Therefore, this power is established for the benefit of all ... ". This article states that * * * is only to protect people's safety and rights, otherwise it should be changed. It denies the sanctity of the monarchy and affirms the people's right to decide the destiny of the country. Article 16: "If rights are not guaranteed and powers are not separated, there will be no constitution". The "separation of powers" mentioned here is "separation of powers". The declaration stated that human rights should be protected by a new decentralized country. Only in this way can we change the arbitrary situation in which the three powers are concentrated in the king. Restrict kingship and realize freedom and equality. Article 17 stipulates that "property is a sacred and inviolable right". This laid the class foundation of the Declaration of Human Rights, thus making every article branded with the bourgeoisie. Equality, freedom and rights proposed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights are all based on ensuring private property.
In short, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights clearly declares that freedom, equality, property and security are natural and inviolable human rights. Announced the principle of "* * * for the people"; Declared the basic interests of the bourgeoisie; Declare private property sacred and inviolable. The publication of the Declaration of Human Rights shattered the myth of divine right of monarchy, denied the feudal hierarchy, mobilized the great enthusiasm of the revolutionary people, and played a role in mobilizing and organizing the people to participate in the anti-feudal struggle. People held high the banner of "human rights", which dealt a heavy blow to the feudal privileged class and feudal autocracy and promoted the in-depth development of the Great Revolution. The Declaration of Human Rights became an important symbol of the thoroughness and typicality of the French Revolution.
