Various connecting threads among these varied uprisings include a concern for the "Rights of Man" and freedom of the individual; an idea (often predicated on Locke or Rousseau ) of popular sovereignty; belief in a social contract, which in turn was often codified in written Constitution s; a certain complex of religious convictions often associated with Deism or Voltaire an agnosticism, and characterized by veneration of Reason; abhorrence of feudalism and often of monarchy itself. The Atlantic Revolutions also had many shared symbols, including the name " Patriot " used by so many revolutionary groups; the slogan of " Liberty "; the Liberty Cap ; Lady Liberty Or Marianne ; the Tree Of Liberty , and so on.
