The Enlightenment People sought new insight into “the underlying beliefs regarding government, religion, economics, and education” p. 629 Two English political thinkers became popular, but for quite different views and beliefs on human nature & government

Thomas Hobbes wrote Leviathan in 1651 believed all humans were naturally selfish & wicked without government humans would always be at war & life would be “solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short” social contract: people create government (give up individual rights to a ruler/leader) also believed that ruler needed absolute power to maintain order & keep citizens under control

Does this sound familiar? John Locke believed people are blank slates & are molded by experiences from their surroundings; can learn from them opposed absolute monarchies & believed in self-government All people were born free & equal with 3 natural rights: Life, Liberty, & Property The purpose of government is to protect these rights If a government fails to protect these rights, the people have the right to overthrow it believed power comes from the people Does this sound familiar?

The Enlightenment Voltaire: Montesquieu: criticized the clergy, aristocracy, & government in his writings fought for tolerance, reason, religious freedom, & freedom of speech Montesquieu: studied political liberty believed in the separation of powers (different branches of government like in England at the time) believed in checks & balances in power His ideals became the basis for our Declaration & Constitution!

The Enlightenment Jean Jacques Rousseau: Mary Wollstonecraft: committed to protecting individual freedom believed civilization corrupted people’s natural goodness believed the only good government was one that was freely formed by the people & guided by the “general will” of society (Hrmmmm… also sounds familiar) wrote a book called The Social Contract about an agreement among free individuals to create a society and a government Mary Wollstonecraft: argued women, like men, need education to become virtuous & useful equality for women especially in education
