About This Item
Mineola, NY: Dover Publications Inc., 2002. Soft cover. Good. Clean, tight; pencil underlining to pp.1-23; very light wear to covers; minimal wear; In The Second Treatise of Government, a major contribution to the principles underlying modern democracies, he achieved two objectives: rufuting the concept of divine right of monarchy, and establishing a theory of government based on the ultimate sovereignty of the people. In A Letter Concerning Toleration, composed as early as 1667 but not published for political reasons until 1689 - after the "Glorious Revolution" - Locke pleaded for religious tolerance on grounds similar to his argument for political freedom, i.e. that all men are by nature "free, equal, and independent," and are entitled to freedom of thought, freedom of speech, and freedom of worship.
