Bog beskrivelse

Machiavelli, Hobbes, and Locke each sought a new foundation for political order. This book serves as a reader''s companion to Machiavelli''s The Prince, Hobbes''s Leviathan, and Locke''s Second Treatise written for graduate students and scholars seeking a fuller understanding of these classic texts. How do these philosophers respond to perennial questions such as why anyone is ever obligated to obey a government and whether there are any limits to such an obligation. In this book, Bookman begins by sorting out the hermeneutical controversy between textualists and contextualists, offers a chapter-by-chapter commentary on the texts punctuated by questions for the reader''s reflection, and finally suggests a firmer foundation for a theory of political obligation than Hobbes''s and Locke''s consent theories. Also included are bibliographical essays keyed to select bibliographies, providing readers with a wide-ranging, critical review of the secondary literature. Intended to be read alongside the primary work, the work is a full intellectual, critical, and bibliographical history, as well as a fresh examination of three classic texts in political theory and philosophy.
