Explain the differing views of Hobbes and Locke in your own words Hobbes
The only way to create a government is to give the power and strength to one man... men will give up
their right of governing oneself to this man. This is more than just giving up their individuality; it is
the real unity of them all. This done, so united in one person, is called a commonwealth.
Locke
The reason men enter into society is the preservation of their property; and the reason they make a
government is so laws can be made, and rules set, to limit the power of every member of society.
Whenever the government tries to take away the property of the people, or to reduce them to slavery,
they put themselves into a state of war with the people who are then freed from any further
obedience.
