Locke scholarship has been flourishing in Japan for several
decades, but its output is largely unknown to the West. This
collection makes available in English for the first time the fruits
of recent Japanese research, opening up the possibility of
advancing Locke studies on an international scale. Covering three
important areas of Locke's philosophical thought - knowledge and
experimental method, law and politics, and religion and toleration
- this volume criticizes established interpretations and replaces
them with novel alternatives, breaking away from standard
narratives and providing fresh ways of looking at Locke's
relationship with philosophers such as Boyle, Berkeley and Hume.
The specific topics that have been selected are ones that continue
to have important contemporary moral and political implications,
from constitutionalism and toleration to marriage and the death
penalty. Applying Locke's views to 21st-century questions, this
collection presents provocative readings of the defining aspects of
Locke's philosophical thought, stimulating current debates and
heralding a new era of collaborative work for Locke scholars around
the world.
