Description
This work is one of the most influential texts in the history of political philosophy, exploring the foundations of natural rights, freedom, equality, and the role of government authority. In his Second Treatise of Government , Locke discusses several key concepts, including The State of Nature —a section on human nature without laws or rulers, Of the State of War , where he explores conflict and the struggle for survival, and Of Property , in which he explains the right to private property as natural and essential to society’s development. Locke then examines Of Paternal Power , comparing the rights of parents and rulers, and Of Political or Civil Society , where he introduces the concept of the social contract as the foundation of the state. He continues with Of the Beginning of Political Societies , analyzing how individuals unite to protect their rights, and Of the Ends of Political Society and Government , where he argues that government exists to preserve citizens’ rights and freedoms. In Of the Dissolution of Government , Locke outlines the conditions under which a society has the right to change or overthrow a government that fails in its duties. Through this work, Locke inspires readers to critically consider justice, power, and the moral basis of governance. This Large Print Edition offers a comfortable reading experience for those who benefit from an accessible format, making this classic text available to all. —- ISBN: 9798346951216 | ISBN10: B0DN5Y1DMG | ISBN-13: 979-8346951216
