More about the book
Locke's theory of civil society begins with the concept of the state of nature, emphasizing that all individuals are equal as created by God. He explores the emergence of property and civilization, asserting that legitimate governments derive their authority from the consent of the governed. This foundational idea suggests that any government lacking this consent is subject to overthrow. Locke's work serves as a pivotal exploration of individual rights and the justification for political authority.
