Samenvatting
Two Treatises on Government: A Translation into Modern English
John Locke’s 1690 book is one of the most important and influential works on government ever published. The first part demolishes the main authoritarian/totalitarian ideology of its day: the doctrine of the divine right of kings to absolute arbitrary power over their subjects. The second sets out the real social origins, functions and limits of government. Locke demonstrates that far from God and natural law ordaining all-powerful hereditary dictatorship, the only legitimate form of government is one established with the consent of the people and committed to upholding their fundamental human rights to life, liberty, and property.
The book justified the Glorious Revolution establishing parliamentary government in England and was an inspiration behind the American Declaration of Independence a century later. Around the world, it continues to have a profound influence on the theory and practice of limited representative government and protecting basic rights and freedoms under the rule of law.
This is a current language version of the book - essentially translating the work into modern English to improve its readability and understandability.
