around the former than the latter, since obviously
the former brings out the best in men while the

John Locke Vs Thomas Hobbes

Their theories are both psychologically
insightful, but in nature, they are drastically
different. Although they lived in the same
timeframe, their ideas were derived from different
events happening during this time. Hobbes drew his
ideas on man from observation, during a time of
civil strife in Europe during the 1640 's and 1650
's. Locke drew his ideas from a time where Hobbes
did not have the chance to observe the, glorious
revolution. In uncivilized times, in times before
