What if the power to rule came not from kings or crowns, but from the people themselves? In Second Treatise of Government, John Locke reimagines society as a pact where individuals, born with natural rights to life, liberty, and property, come together to create governments that serve and protect them. He challenges the tyranny of absolute monarchs, proposing that authority must be earned through consent, not force. This revolutionary work laid the foundation for modern democracy and inspires readers to question the true source of power in any society.
Few books have shaped the course of history like John Locke's Second Treatise of Government. Written during a time of political upheaval, it redefined the relationship between citizens and their rulers, introducing the radical idea that governments exist to protect natural rights-life, liberty, and property. Locke's work became a cornerstone for modern democratic thought, profoundly influencing the American and French Revolutions. Its arguments for consent of the governed and the right to rebellion continue to inspire movements for freedom and justice worldwide.
