Tutkielma hallitusvallasta. Tutkimus poliittisen vallan oikeasta alkuperästä, laajuudesta ja tarkoituksesta
John Locken (1632?1704) ajatukset ovat vaikuttaneet syvästi koko länsimaiseen poliittiseen järjestelmään. Esimerkiksi Yhdysvaltojen perustuslaki seuraa Locken liberalismia. Tutkielma hallitusvallasta on hänen yhteiskuntafilosofinen pääteoksensa, yksi alan keskeisimmistä klassikoista. Sen sisältämä teoriaa yksityisen omaisuuden ja yksilÃn vapauden loukkaamattomuudesta käytetään edelleen filosofisen keskustelun pohjana.Kääntäjä:Mikko YrjÃnsuuri

John Locke was an English philosopher. He is considered the first of the British Empiricists, but is equally important to social contract theory. His ideas had enormous influence on the development of epistemology and political philosophy, and he is widely regarded as one of the most influential Enlightenment thinkers and contributors to liberal theory. His writings influenced Voltaire and Rousseau, many Scottish Enlightenment thinkers, as well as the American revolutionaries. This influence is reflected in the American Declaration of Independence.
Locke's theory of mind is often cited as the origin for modern conceptions of identity and "the self", figuring prominently in the later works of philosophers such as David Hume, Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Immanuel Kant. Locke was the first Western philosopher to define the self through a continuity of "consciousness." He also postulated that the mind was a "blank slate" or "tabula rasa"; that is, contrary to Cartesian or Christian philosophy, Locke maintained that people are born without innate ideas.
