John Locke's 'Two Treatises on Civil Government' & How It Applied to America's Revolutionary Government
[ send me this paper ]
A 9 page paper which analyzes the pros and cons of John Locke's 'Two Treatises on Civil Government' in terms of how it applied to the revolutionary. Specifically considered are the creation of state constitutions following the Declaration of Independence; theoretical problems of Locke's treatise concerning the foundation of imperial connection; how Locke paid little attention to the mechanism by which people could make their decisions known; Locke's failure to clarify the rule of parliament in relation to the community (or state of nature) as a whole; problems of the revolutionary allegiance to the king after the colonist break from Great Britain, considering that a state of nature had not been created.

John Locke's "A Letter Concerning Toleration" - Defining Toleration
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. To understand toleration as Locke intended is to realize its inherent relation to possessing conscience. His 1689 paper entitled "A Letter Concerning Toleration" set a significant precedent with regard to how toleration, in and of itself, is not solely connected with propriety, but rather holds more of an impact upon concerns of political morality. Insofar as one might consider this approach to be somewhat of a limitation upon the notion of toleration, it actually represents a broader perspective of the term that incorporates pertinent principles of one's existence: civic virtue, religion and political morality.

John Locke’s “Blank Slate” and Education
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the ideas of John Locke concerning education and the tabula rasa (“blank slate”) of human beings. Locke’s ideas regarding the formation of government and the appropriate role of government have served as guiding parameters in the formation of Western governments for centuries. In his “Essay Concerning Human Understanding” (1690), Locke asserted that the human mind could be compared to a “white paper, void of all characters” and that same mind relied on “all the materials of reason and knowledge.” This paper considers the role of education in such a construct. Bibliography lists one source.

John Locke’s “Essay on Human Understanding” Book II
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses English philosopher, John Locke (1632-1704) and his focus on the division of human ideas in sub-categories related to substances, modes, and relations. Almost the entire core of the intellectual activity of the eighteenth century in England leads back to Locke. Locke was able to succinctly describe and honor the Enlightenment in his belief in the middle class and its right to freedom of conscience and right to property, in his faith in science, and in his confidence in the goodness of humanity. Locke was convinced that in order for a liberal, tolerant, regime to survive, it had to be intolerant of those who were neither liberal nor tolerant. His influence upon philosophy and political theory has been incalculable. No secondary sources.

John Locke’s “Second Treatise on Government”: Locke’s View of Human Nature and the Only Legitimate Form of Government
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 4 page paper discussing human nature and government based on mutual consent from John Locke’s his “Second Treatise on Government” (1690). John Locke within his “Second Treatise on Government” covers the development of the need for civil government based on the laws of Nature and those of man. Firstly, in Nature, all men are equal and it is within human nature to love and want to be loved by others, humans, with whom they are equal. Despite this love for other humans however, Locke also acknowledges that man realizes that human nature has weaknesses and because of this men mutually agree to follow the laws of Nature which will not allow men to harm another’s life, property, health or freedom. Men also mutually agree on laws within their government by which all men must consent or be punished if broken. The consent to follow mutual laws is also applied to government in that as man chooses to become a member of society he also agrees to the mutual terms set out by the government he choose to support within society. Civil government can only be effective if it extends the human nature of man to be equal by the mutual consent of all those concerned. Bibliography lists 1 source.
