Woodhull is a political treatise written in the early 1870s. The text explores the relationship between government and the evolution of human rights, focusing specifically on the history of nations and the future of the United States as a representative democracy. A significant theme throughout the work is the advocacy for women's suffrage and equality, positioning Woodhull herself as a candidate for the presidency, asserting that women have been historically denied their rights. At the start of the publication, Woodhull introduces her exploration of government and society with an emphasis on historical context and the evolution of ideas. She reflects on the injustices of her time, particularly the subjugation of women, and argues for their political equality based on constitutional rights that should extend to all citizens regardless of sex. The introductory chapters set the stage for her candidacy in the 1872 presidential election and delve into broader discussions about human rights, socio-political developments, and the necessity for reform in contemporary governance.
