Editor's Notes

  1. -Social contract: question of the relation between natural and legal rights.
  2. Absolute monarchy: a strong central authority to avoid the evil of discord and civil war. State of nature: people know no virtues and therefore are vicious. : the sovereign power of the protector comes becauseof people surrendering their own sovereign power for protection and thereby they are the authors of all decisions made by the sovereign power.Political: Started this, politics, liberty, justice, property, rights, law, and the enforcement of a legal code by authority,  is a social science discipline concerned with the study of the state, nation, government, and politics and policies of government. The Social contract: not benevolent but competitive and self-centered >realism theories for international relations (eg. All states tend to pursue self-interest.)
  3. Classical liberalism: Emerged as a response to the Industrial Revolution and urbanization in the 19th century in Europe and the United States and advocates civil liberties (eg. Specific rights, freedom from slavery) with a limited government (allows the people to shape their society) under the rule of law, private property, and belief in economic policy that is free from tariffs and taxes.Empiricism: -emphasizes evidence, especially as discovered in experiments is a fundamental part of the scientific method and that all hypotheses and theories must be tested against observations of the natural world rather than resting solely on a prior reasoning.Social Contract: why people are willing to do so Origin: Born with a blank slate, without innate ideas, and that knowledge is instead determined only by experience derived from sense or perception.
  4. Theory: Something to note though is that he does not mention that act morally; just that they are are self-sufficient and thus not subject to the vices of political society. In fact, he believes self-restraint, can only develop through careful education in a civil state.Stages: Noble savage=not been "corrupted" by civilization, and therefore symbolizes humanity's innate goodness. He thinks society's negative influence on men transforms positive self-love, pride.The social contract:submission to the authority of the general will of the people as a whole guarantees individuals against being subordinated to the wills of others and also ensures that they obey themselves because they are, collectively, the authors of the law. Romanticism:revolt against the Age of Enlightenment and a reaction against the scientific rationalization of nature, attribution of a spiritual value to the beauty of nature helped formed the attitudes within the period of time towards nature and religion.
  5. Theory of perception:thus offering a non-empiricist critique of rationalist philosophyAnalytical : predicate concept is contained in its subject concept All bachelors are unmarriedSynthetic: predicate concept is not contained in its subject concept All bachelors are happyMoral Philosophy: Believed that the moral law is a principle of reason itself.Kantianism:
