Metaphysical Problems, Political Solutions

Self, State, and Nation in Hobbes and Locke

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book seeks to read the political thought of classic thinkers of the liberal tradition in the context of their metaphysical and theological writings. Sokolowski demonstrates that the political measures offered by political theorists to remedy the state of unrest and instability are intrinsically connected to their metaphysical conception of order, the self, and the interaction between the two.
