Abstract

Kristy King, visiting assistant professor of politics at Whitman College, discusses John Locke's ideas on rights, property, and the proper role of the state, all of which permeate current political discussions. As one of the great political thinkers of the Western tradition, John Locke still plays an influential role in today's political discourse.
