John Locke and Thomas Hobbes were both social contract theorists and natural law theorists. Locke can be rightfully thanked for being one of the first people to come up with ideas that eventually became a part of Americas and Britain’s constitution.

He said human nature was inherently evil‚ wicked but polished to disguise our foul innards. Locke

people need a ruler to be in control. On the other hand‚ John Locke adopts a positive tone about the goodness of people and how we should live our lives freely. Based on human nature‚ I most identify with John Locke because of his belief on self government and that everyone should have the lawful right of existence and independence.

John Locke was best known as an advocate of empiricism and for his belief of tabula rasa‚ or the blank slate. In this way his beliefs were similar to those of the behaviorist school of thought. Locke is known as the father of English Empiricism. Empiricism believes that everyone is born with a blank slate that we fill as we experience life. The knowledge that we gain throughout life is due to our experiences‚ not through reasoning or thought. Locke believed that there is only the capacity to have
