"Two Treatise on Government" is published (+2) (1 janv. 1689 – 1 janv. 1689)

Description:

John Locke's Two Treatises of Government had a profound impact on modern democracies. Locke argued against absolute monarchy and the devine right to rule, advocating for a government that derives power from the consent of the governed, and for individual rights, including life, liberty, and property. These ideas, centered on natural rights and the social contract, influenced revolutionary political thought, shaping documents like the U.S. Declaration of Independence and inspiring democratic reforms worldwide, such as the french revolution.
