John Locke’s Views Regarding Personal Property
[ send me this essay ]
This 8 page
report discusses English philosopher, John Locke (1632-1704), and

ingredients of an individual or a community’s self-preservation.
Those ingredients, according to the Second Treatise include the
right to private property. He also believes that it is labor that
creates value and turns something that was fundamentally
worthless into something of worth. Therefore, the person who has
put energy and effort into a product has a right to that product.

John Locke/Second Treatise
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page essay that discusses Locke's purpose in writing his Second Treatise on Government. In his preface, Locke expresses his intention to justify the rule of King William and disprove the philosophy of Robert Filmer. In his Second Treatise, Locke succeeds in his purpose, showing that government whose sovereignty derives form the consent of the governed need not lay a foundation for perpetual "Disorder and Mischief, Tumult, Sedition and Rebellion" (Locke, 1998). He achieves this purpose largely through his logical commentary, which distinguishes between a State of Nature (SN) and a State of War (SW). Bibliography lists 2 sources.

John Rawls’ Theories of Social Justice and Human Rights and Their Applications to Issues in Today’s Society
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 20 page paper discussing the political philosophies of John Rawls and their applications in today’s society. The political philosophies of John Rawls have included the aspects of theories of justice, justice as fairness, and political liberalism which are all used in the moral rights of citizens and the structure of society to provide social justice and equal human rights. Within the structure of society, Rawls believes that representatives from every generation should be allowed to bargain for an agreement of principles in societies but must all agree on two major principles: one, that each person has the absolute right to basic liberties and freedoms; and, two that social and economic inequalities can occur with fair competition but the inequalities must always benefit the least advantaged in society. Although Rawls has received some criticism on his philosophies over the years, largely because he does not stipulate which ends are to be met in society but only the process which must take place in the bargaining aspect of social justice, his theories have been used in relation to many modern issues including the fight for the rights of minorities, women, religious tolerance, sexual preference, family issues and special education.
