This volume guides the reader through a detailed examination of the
text to an understanding of Locke's political ideas in relation to
his writings on philosophy, education, religion and economics and
the influence these ideas had upon eighteenth-century political
theorists. The author shows how Locke carefully constructed his
political perspective as a defence of the principles of natural
rights, constitutional government and popular resistance. He offers
an original interpretation of the Two Treatises..., emphasizing the
specific ways in which Locke's political purposes in writing the
work influence his discussion of such concepts as the state of
nature, property, consent and tyranny. The author discusses the
historical and biographical context of the work and demonstrates
how eighteenth century political thinkers developed or rejected
aspects of Locke's political theory and summarizes important recent
studies of Locke's work.
