"Taxation without representation" refers to the grievance of American colonists in the 18th century who were taxed by the British government without having any representatives in the British Parliament. This principle became a rallying cry during the American Revolution, as colonists believed it was unfair to be subjected to taxes imposed by a government in which they had no voice or vote. The phrase encapsulated their demand for political rights and participation in the legislative process. Ultimately, it underscored the broader struggle for self-governance and individual liberties.
