John Locke

John Locke (prononcé en anglais : /d͡ʒɒn lɒk/), né le 29 août 1632 à Wrington (Somerset) et mort le 28 octobre 1704 à High Laver (Essex), est un philosophe anglais. Il vit à une époque charnière qui voit la fin des guerres de religion, les débuts du rationalisme et une forte opposition à l'absolutisme en Angleterre. Proche de Anthony Ashley-Cooper (1er comte de Shaftesbury), Locke est partie prenante à ses débats et aux théories alors naissantes du contrat social, de la loi et du droit naturel, ainsi que de l'état de nature. Il s'intéresse aussi au droit de propriété et aux prémices de ce qui sera appelé à compter du XIXe siècle le libéralisme. En savoir plus sur Wikipédia
