About this book
In a pivotal era of intellectual awakening, "Essays, or discourses, vol. 4 (of 4)" by John Locke delves into the foundations of governance and individual rights. This compelling document explores the concept of unalienable rights, asserting that life, liberty, and property are inherent to every individual. Locke’s discourse on the social contract challenges the legitimacy of absolute power, emphasizing the necessity of consent in governance. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, this volume provides critical insights into Enlightenment thought and its lasting impact on modern democracy. Engage with Locke’s profound arguments and understand the philosophical underpinnings that continue to shape our understanding of rights and governance today.
