Locke in America: The Moral Philosophy of the Founding Era

(1995)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

An account of the link between Locke's thought and the American Founding. The author argues that previous writers have misread Locke's influence on the Founders: he portrays the philosopher as a moderate 17th-century moralist advocating an individualism that fits well with classic republicanism.
