It ranks as one of the greatest and most influential political documents of all time. The Founders offered a careful set of arguments for armed revolution, a course that was not undertaken lightly, with full awareness of the consequences. The material in this module reveals the way in which the American experiment in liberty and limited government arose out of the intersection of libertarian moral and political philosophy and the political conflicts of the day, for example, the intersection of support for freedom of trade and attempts by the British government to impose mercantilist policies on the Americans in the interest of the British East Indies Company.
That effort has been an inspiration to lovers of liberty all around the globe. To what extent does the extension of protection of the sort offered by the British armies obligate the protected? In what ways has it become more libertarian, and in what ways less?
As the author of two highly influential pamphlets, The American Crisis and Common Sense , at the start of the American Revolution, he aimed to inspire the colonists to declare independence from Britain.
Although his work influenced the Founding Fathers to some degree, he had a much greater impact on the common people, who, after reading these two works, became much more supportive of the Revolutionary cause. Although the push for American independence was already burning when Paine was writing, he certainly helped to kindle the flame.
John Locke 29 August - 28 October was an English philosopher and physician regarded as one of the most influential of Enlightenment thinkers, especially concerning the development of political philosophy.
His writings influenced Voltaire and Rousseau, but most importantly, the American revolutionaries. Thomas Jefferson used the thoughts first penned by John Locke while writing the Declaration of Independence. Locke published these works only after the Glorious Revolution of , when Parliament had deposed the absolutist James II in favor of a constitutional monarchy, and even then he kept the authorship of the Treatises anonymous. It proved essential to the American founders, although later historians have engaged in wide-ranging debates as to whether Locke was chiefly a radical libertarian, an apologist for capitalism, a social democrat, a moral individualist, an atheistic hedonist, or a deeply religious reformer.
The core ideas in the Second Treatise are deceptively simple. Individuals give up their natural rights to judge disputes and enforce the law of nature, and in thus giving up their individual rights they create the original powers of government: the legislative and executive, a distinction that Locke uses to justify a fundamental separation of powers. They frequently cited him during the Stamp Act protests and the Pamphlet War. As a Christian rationalist, Locke renounced the ideas that faith can be forced and that piety demands a particular organizational or doctrinal orthodoxy.
The boundaries of both are fixed and immovable. He jumbles Heaven and Earth together. Although Locke, responding to the fevered religious battles of his day, conceded the impracticality of extending tolerance to atheists , who he thought lacked morality, or Catholics , who he felt despised the rule of law, he still sought to distance religious belief from the coercive and corrupting force of the state.
