The
Harmful Effects of Inequality According to Locke and
Rousseau
[ send
me this paper ]
This 6 page report discusses the differing opinions of the
18th century French philosopher, Jean Jacques Rousseau,
whose writings inspired the leaders of the French
Revolution and those of John Locke, considered to have
been one of Great Britain’s greatest thinkers. Locke
believed that because a person is naturally free only when
ruled by the law of nature, the individual is ostensibly
free from any superior power on earth and from the will of
all other men, thus negating the idea of human equality or
inequality. Rousseau, on the other hand, was certain that
some inequalities are inescapable because they are
natural, but there are also unnatural inequalities, such
as great disparities in wealth, that should disappear.
