Kurzbeschreibung
This is the revised version of Peter Laslett's acclaimed edition of Two Treatises of Government, which is widely recognised as one of the classic pieces of recent scholarship in the history of ideas, read and used by students of political theory throughout the world. This new edition revises Dr Laslett's second edition (1970) and includes an updated bibliography, a guide to further reading and a fully reset and revised introduction which surveys recent advances in Locke scholarship. In the introduction, Dr Laslett shows that the Two Treatises were not a rationalisation of the events of 1688 but rather a call for a revolution yet to come.

This is one of the most important works ever written. In the Second Treatise, Locke lays down the theory of natural law and how it relates to the individual as well as to government. Although he was not the first or the only writer tp elaborate such a theory, his interpretation is clear and eloquent, as can be seen in its use in the Declaration of Independence. The First Treatise was basically a refutation of the now obscure authoritarian work "Patriarcha" by Sir Robert Filmer. Although it is an interesting piece, it has long been rightfully overshadowed by its partner. If for some reason you are actually seeking a refutation of Filmer, I would refer you to Algernon Sidney's more lengthy "Discourses Concerning Government." By far the finest edition of this work is Peter Laslett's, and I consider the purchase of any other edition a sorry waste of money. In his lengthy introductory essays, he traces the historical,political, and philosophical background of John Locke's life and ideas as well as the actual writing of the work itself. His greatest contribution however, is proving that the work was written well before the Glorious Revolution of 1688.

John Locke enunciated the principles of government in a way that marched from the printed page to the stirring paragraphs of the Declaration of Independence (since Jefferson was greatly influenced by Locke). Thus anyone who wishes to understand the reasons why humans bind themselves into societies, and what the obligations of a people and their government should be to each other, should read this book. Peter Laslett provides an excellent edition with an extensive introduction (over 100 pages!) and copious notes. Locke is definitely deep reading, but those who are not afraid to ponder the whys and wherefores of government will be greatly rewarded

John Locke's book "Two Treatises of Government" describes how absolute power can infringe on people's natural born rights. In these treatises, he discusses various states in which people may live while keeping the natural rights of others. However, if certain rules are violated, these "criminals" give up their rights and later they are punished under the rules of the society. The first book mainly refutes the ideals of Sir Robert Filmer's concerning absolute power by citing various biblical contexts. The second book focuses on the numerous states in which people may exist. Locke's books display his, interesting sense of humor particularly when he is refuting Sir Robert's case. In an effort to keep the reader interested, Locke makes a subtle play on words. For example, Locke states, "Adam, as soon as he was created, had a title only in habit, and not in act, which in plain English is, he had actually no title at all." However, "Two Treatises of Government" has a few faults, one of which, is that Locke tends to ramble and repeat himself many times throughout both books. In Book Two, he constantly repeats himself and sometimes the book contains complete chapters reiterating what he said earlier. However, Locke just wants to confirm that his readers understand the material. Our school library will greatly benefit from "Two Treatises of Government." It is a good book to read in order to properly understand the beliefs of the Enlightenment philosophers. In addition, if a person is competing in the Lincoln-Douglas Debates in Forensics, many of Locke's works are essential for a good debate.
