by John Locke (Author)
Two Treatises of Government is a influential work of political philosophy originally published in 1689 by English philosopher John Locke. This treatise is an attack on patriarchalism and is a sentence-by-sentence refutation of Patriarcha by Robert Filmer. The second treatise outlines the theory of having a civil society which is based on both natural rights and contract theory. Two Treatises of Government is highly recommended for those who enjoy the writings of John Locke, and also for those who are students and scholars of political science who have not yet had the opportunity to read this key political work.
