John Locke And The Doctrine Of Majority-Rule - Paperback

by Willmoore Kendall (Author)

""John Locke and the Doctrine of Majority-Rule"" is a book written by Willmoore Kendall that explores the political philosophy of John Locke and his ideas on majority-rule. The book examines Locke's views on democracy, representation, and the role of government in society. Kendall argues that Locke's theory of majority-rule is not simply a matter of counting votes, but rather a complex system of checks and balances that ensures that the will of the majority is tempered by the protection of individual rights. The book also examines the historical context in which Locke developed his ideas, including the English Civil War and the Glorious Revolution, and explores how these events shaped his political thought. Overall, ""John Locke and the Doctrine of Majority-Rule"" provides a comprehensive analysis of Locke's political philosophy and its relevance to modern democracy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
