Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679) Supported monarchies (kings) Said people are inherently selfish and evil. He wrote about this political philosophy in his book, Leviathan (Published in 1651) while in France...(1640) England on the brink of Civil War (1642) during and after the Fronde (1643) Said people chose a ruler and should trust his decision making, or else their natural selfishness would result lawlessness and conflict.

Non Est potestas Super Terram quae Comparetur ei Job 41:24

Non Est potestas Super Terram quae Comparetur ei  “There is no power on earth which can be compared to him.” Job 41:24: “A multitude of men, are made one person, when they are by one man, or one person, represented; so that it be done with the consent of every one of that multitude in particular” (Hobbes, Leviathan, I.16.13).

According to Hobbes The only right people have is to protect their own lives. All rights to everything else are trusted to the king. All people are inherently savages, and cannot be trusted in decision making as a group.

Are people inherently savages?

Hobbes’s Impact Influenced supporters of the monarchy in Europe. Said the world is a place where only the strong survive unless order is forced by a ruler. People should give up individual liberty for public safety.

Think about what he’s seeing in England at the time… Think about what he’s seeing in England at the time… In revolutions are people safe?

John Locke (1632-1704) Said people have rights that are above that of the good of society. They include life, liberty, and property. Governments and leaders only exist to protect these rights. Much of the basis for the Declaration of Independence!

Locke’s main point… John Locke (1632-1704) A ruler who denies people their basic rights is a tyrant and can justly be overthrown. Again, think about what is happening in England at the time… John Locke (1632-1704)

Locke’s Impact Claimed there was no such thing as absolute power. Parliament, the lawmaking body in England, listens to Locke. Establish Habeas Corpus, or protection against unfair arrest and imprisonment. English Bill of Rights guarantees basic protections in England for the first time in 1689.
