POLITICAL THEORY - John Locke

- čas přidán 31. 05. 2024
- John Locke's greatness as a philosopher is based on his theories on childhood, his work on religious toleration and his concept of the rights of citizens. He helped to make us who we are.

Psychology,neuroscience and philosophy should mandatory in highschools, we are left ignorant of most important things in life by our education system.
I took both psychology and philosophy in highschool. It's not the system.
in public high school ?.......was it mandatory?
Yes it was a public high-school. No it was not mandatory. However, education is a choice either way. No one is forced to go to school, and especially not high-school. By that time, we all have the individual choice to drop out after a certain period of time. Whether a course is "Mandatory," or not isn't why a kid loses his interest in education. Education is already beautiful. If someone decides for themselves to believe otherwise, it's their own fault. Any excuse otherwise, like blaming the institution, blaming parents, blaming past failures, well, that's just the efforts of the individual to try to make up for his perceived mistakes in life. In my opinion, that person shouldn't be so hard on themselves. Education isn't the most important thing in the world.
it is mandatory for teens to attend school for the first two years of high school.............in most schools what are the students taught about the socio-political context of the world they are about to enter after graduation?............in the four years of high school what job skill do most students learn?
Well, if those kids drop out only after two years, whatever they learned, probably won't have any use in the world after graduation. If they do go beyond the two years, and actually WANT to learn, then, I'm sure, that it doesn't matter what they are taught about that unless, they choose to have a career that revolves around it. Also, you are required to take a political course in college. So, going to college, might help people out
"Life, liberty and Property" My all time favourite quote.
Ron Swanson
"life, order, and reverence" is one of mine
Life, Liberty and Solidarity
Mmmm... Locke included slaves in his definition of property, so maybe, fuck that guy!
@@MsColl90 You are holding him accountable by the standards of today, you shouldn't do that. It's one of the biggest mistakes we could do when we are learning history. I recommend you to read some of the Locke's work, and you won't say 'fuck that guy'.
The guy was obviously ahead of his time. It's amazing he wasn't Locked-up lol.
Not really for a man working in slave-trade.
😂 Good one!
@@yasiralghamdi8539 firstly your argument is disproved because there is slavery in Africa right now. Secondly in the 1600's when Locke did his works slavery was commonplace. Thirdly these ideas inevitably ended slavery. If you're going to be an abolitionist in 2020 you have to attack slavery globally and before the western world started to gain power. Advocate for the pyramids to come down, advocate for all native American monuments to come down, advocate the dismantling for all of Asia to be destroyed. All these civilizations used slavery. England, Canada, Europe, and America ended slavery because of the works of Locke and other Western philosophers. England should get more credit because (my history is rusty) they took military action against many nations that used slavery. Get bent bro.
@@ryanfox2599
I didn't read you whole comment, but I am not totally against slavery, but to not understand me wrong I am against racism... It is a good to punch people better than whole life prison ... Just deal with them as human
Only on CZcams can a pun get out of hand so fast.
So interesting that Locke and Hobbes both witnessed the execution of Charles I, ultimately coming to sometimes very different conclusions because of it. One of my favorite series, please keep up the great work!
No he did not
Bro i was thinking the same 🤪
You guys explained it better in less than 10 minutes than my teacher did in a month of classes. Good job
in your point of view teachers suck WOW
His idea of education was better than our actual education. And that over 300 years ago, wow :O
No music? No poetry? You actually think that's better?
@@OrsinoNation i do believe school should prepare you to the world and not teach you actual skills. those skills should be obtained by practicing and maybe going to college
Schools evolving...
Just backwards.
well I disagree with his idea that music and poetry aren't important because they very much are. But generally his idea on education I think he is correct.
You think so? I'd say music and poetry are extremely valuable assets. There are those (and many) who don't find the time or even get the chance to indulge in the making of music outside of school due to their living situation - should they not to be allowed to learn?
John Locke
Fun Fact: Locke was going to become a doctor, till he met Earl of Shaftsburry (very political figure).
What to do about differing religious views?
Toleration
- People CAN'T (lacking of ability) determine which is a true religious standpoint.
- Even if you could, no one can make (by violence) you genuinely believe something.
- Religious uniformity leads to more social chaos, than allowing diversity,
Who should rule the country?
-God gives that authority.
- The rule must make people comfortable in society
- The ruler has to respect everyone's freedom and property. Beyond that the people have the right to overthrow their rulers.
How should we educate our children?
- People's views are shaped by their experiences, as they are blank slates when they are born. Therefore, educate them right, and early.
- They should be taught practical things such as ethics, business, psychology, science, etc.
Important definition:
State of nature, when we have all rights before joining society. (as we consent to give up some rights to live in society)
Forced religious uniformity creates a horrid environment for society, but if it comes about naturally it’s as good or bad as the religion that dominates is.
nah u jus blessed i got hw on this
Let’s goo I just got hw for this vid and I saved me
@@feartheghus yes exactly, this is where Locke fails his own words on toleration. "Because you can't be compelled belief thru violence"....
Who should rule the country?
The authority gets the consent to rule from the people. Their duty is to protect the natural rights of the people, that is, the right to life, liberty and property.
Great man. Locke is basicaly the father of the american constitution. A man that should be remembered for everyone that values the freedom of the individuals.
Willian Pablo lol
freedom of individuals and state are oxymorons xddd
Adam Smith, Lincoln, and Marx had more to do with the final versions of the American constitution. Locke was just someone who had ideas that resonated throughout the constitution.
@@strongfp Did you just say Karl Marx? If so, are you joking?
@@goblinisac5759 nope. The moral philosophy behind marxs work has lead to many advancements in workers rights, workers conditions, and keeping capitalism in check.
So he used to be a philosopher and then he became paralyzed, got lost on an island, and became a nature boy. Wow, this man had a crazy life.
John Locke is one of the most inspirational people when it comes down to human philosophy, in my opinion. Thank you for making this.
John Locke has done so much for us, it's weird to think one man's thoughts could change the course of history for the entirety of Western civilization.
Never knew how awesome Locke's beliefs were. Definitely one of my favorite philosophers now
If you have a my little pony profile picture, then keep that opinion to yourself. I don't want to look bad
@@MONSTERKILL2013 I agree with Saber Cat
@@MONSTERKILL2013I'm John Locke and I support this message.
One of my most favourite philosophers in class. So grateful for him.
I still can remember learning about Locke when I was in middle school and now many years later, he remains one of my favorite philosophers.
what a fantastic short rendition of Lock. I, like most people new the name of Lock and probably heard high brow philosophy make reference to Lock. I neverstood what the man was about, until I tripped over this. The readers voice is so easy to listen to. thank you for making this available. Top man
Music is hardly a useless thing to learn in school. The parts of the brain that are stimulated and grown by studying music are related to mathematics and other important things.
As a superhero in training, I fully endorse the hopping bear graphic holding a pile of rifles.
+Heroic Concepts the hopping graphics in an odd way keep me from clicking off the video.
+Heroic Concepts
Do you fully endorse John Locke's political theory and educational philosophy as a Superhero in training?
This is the best reference video on Locke. Thank you so much for this comprehensive yet so-easy-to-grasp video. More power!
study at "Schools Of Life"
i see what ya did there mate
lol
Nice pepe btw
Canadian Cannabis thx
As L.W. was want to say 'Wonderful, Wonderful, Simply Wonderful.' Thank you. I will use this in my section on Political Philosophy. It sums up so much in so little time.
as always.. thank you. every time i learn i now at the age of 38.. find my self more accepting of infomation. and enjoy the fact that there have been so meany wise humans before me. history is truly the new sat-nav of the mind. ta rolfo
I love how everyone here is considering Locke a Socialist/Communist yet he would today be considered a Right-Wing Libertarian.
He's just a classical liberal... Sad how "liberalism" today has become more about forcing progressivism and wealth distribution
I'm a Progressive Classical Liberal Centrist and I see your point.
Property rights don't seem very communistic.
He definitely would not hold many mainstream Libertarian beliefs regarding education and parental rights
How can Locke be called a communist or socialist which are necessarily totalitarian whereas Locke had advocated for minimalist government?
I don't know how I got to this corner of CZcams, but you made me fall in love with John Locke in less than ten minutes. Well done. What a brilliant man, clearly far ahead of his time. Thanks for introducing me to a historical figure I hadn't heard of before.
This is now, officially, definitely, and FOREVERLY, my favorite channel.
not on my life
I wanted to downsize this and listen to it while I work but the Monty Python-esque style animation captivated me.
Haha, same
they should do a podcast!
Like being in school and it was AV day! Woopee!
Dick Gamble Heh, I remember that.
I look forward to your voice more than the subjects you discuss
It is always good to come back to these videos. They help clarify my mind and bring it back to the basics of knowledge.
Probably the best summary video on Locke posted on youtube! Thanks so much! :D
I have this for my exam in a week, I'm watching all your videos on political theory and it's much more interesting than reading it for 5th time. Thanks a bunch!
Man this guy was amazing, responsible for a lot of my thoughts and the way I think.
We are very vulnerable to the ideas that people place in our minds
God Bless John Locke. his writings were the foundation of the ideas of the founding fathers. We should make a day if not a month dedicated to him.
Since when did the channel blow up so quickly!!! I remember seeing 125k, congratulations on gaining such a large audience 👏🏽👏🏽
Can't wait until you do a video about the your own philosophy, if u want to, I'm just saying🌚
are secular and tolerant same?
+vasilis fatta One of the top 10 channels on youtube. Love the visuals!
Frank a million percent agree with you there on that one
+vasilis fatta hipster alert
Hands down best educational channel on CZcams!
Thank you so much! It helped me a lot to understand Locke’s thoughts. :) I’m using this video for my final exam from social sciences so this is lifesaving.
He was a really cool guy though.
thank you so much i learnt much from the video. I am also using this video to complete my assignment as a political science student. And also extending my appreciation to the guy who uploaded it.
Locke has been one of my faves for over 50 years and now thanks to TSOL i have been rejuvenated .
Weird, I saw this searching for an early TSOL performance, and also weird this is like a lecture of things tied to a detailed organization, of which is personified as the resentful parent that was the cause of childish rebellion exhibited to the garbage I listen to called Punk Rock, which I think is just Rock. Nevermind.
John Locke is probably my favorite philosopher.
I love these videos and use them as review for my classes. One note: your closed captions end abruptly at around the 5 minute mark. It'd be nice to have them for the whole video :)
Im 30 and just on a whim decided to read Of Enthusiasm. Ive never read more clear and sound explications of mathematical philosophy(axiomatic logic as the foundation for pure mathematics) and ethics ive ever read. It made me cry.
John Locke... the man... the legend...
Amazing video guys, helped me a lot with my studying thank you
Excellent work, really, It really helped me for a schoolwork that was meant for hours of reading.
Thank God you exist!! You just saved my filosofy essey. Thankyou. This is amazing
please do a episode on the art of war and Bertrand russell
+Sudev Sen I second this.
Russell for the win!
Thank you so much! Your videos help me to study political science. In Ukraine where I study International law there aren't many books that can explain political theories as simply, as thoroughly and fun as you guys do!
Political science is very interesting!
Thank you a billion times! I wish if you can make one about David Hume. great work thank you so so much!
What a wonderful and beautifully done video. Thanks a lot
Its interesting... and fitting... that much of this video features Henry VIII. Much of modern political philosophy, arguably, could be traced (indirectly... ish) to Henry VIII. As mentioned, much of political philosophy at the time was centered around the divine right of kings. Political power was derived from, and dependent on, God. A person ruled because God allowed it. Then Henry VIII came along. As the song goes, Henry VIII had a lot of wives, but, for the purposes of this story, the only one that actually matters is his first wife, Catherine of Aaragon. Henry wanted an heir. Catherine did not produce one, so in Henry's 30s he decided to look for a new spouse. At the time, England was Catholic, so he requested from the Pope permission to annul his marriage. Divorce and annulment were not seen as valid by Catholic religious law, so it was denied. Long story, short... Henry essentially came to the conclusion that the Pope was not the King; HE was the King and, if the Pope wasn't going to approve it, then Henry was going to make his own church where it was allowed. End of the day, in 1534, Henry VIII created the Church of England (Anglican) separate from the Church of Rome, and they mutually excommunicated each other. All so he could divorce his wife. The ramifications of that action, however, were huge... especially in political philosophy. The thought went, if the power of the King was at the pleasure of God... and the king just rejected God... and nothing happened... then what does that mean? Obviously, the rational answer is that power doesn't derive from God. So, if it doesn't derive from God, then where does political power come from? That act, along with various revolutions at the time, caused an renaissance in political philosophy in the late 16th and early 17th century that examined the sources of power and rights, and lead to the development of schools of thought like Hobbes's, Locke's, and Rousseau's Social Contract Theories. It's fascinating stuff.
I very much enjoyed reading your comment. Fascinating indeed my good man. Thank you.
amazing analysis!
this comment went so hard 🤓
Love it. I'm just now getting into it. Can't believe I've been interested in philosphy and history for over 10 years since highschool and all while not grasping the enlightenment. It was the transitioning period that brought europe out of the dark ages. It set the stage for the modern world.
Another great video, and can we please get a list of references or further reading in the description videos? I know a lot of us want to explore the subjects beyond the videos and it would be great to have reading list pre-made.
Omg THANK YOU! You just saved my life with this!
Thanks for this, this will be so useful for our history test next week!
Ya but when does he get to the island
+zsasz smith was thinking this the whole time
haha right on
+miaowmiaowchowface lol me too
Great channel! I'm really enjoying the content!
This series on Philosophy and philosophers is excellent. Much thanks to the team! Binging on all the episodes. 😂
Amazing Video. Clear and Easy to Understand Explanation. Thank you!
Great video.....that "Right to Bear Arms" graphic has me literally "laughing out loud."
My favorite part of Locke's Letter Concerning Toleration is when he says all religious views should be tolerated...except atheism
My favourite badge from the 1980s was, " DEATH TO ALL FANATICS ".:
God, I love these animations you make!
What a great teacher you are! Thnx 😍😍
Well done!
Thank you for accurately stating the reason for the second amendment.
Some armament is better than nothing when fending off a dictator.
Scania1982 would still result in failure, and until then the basic armament kills society not protects it
Andrew Collingridge Tell that to my uncle.He killed 2 cops by himself.If we all did this we would be able to kill all cops and army fascists.
Andrew Collingridge well that escalated quickly...
Does responsible gun ownership trigger your cognitive dissonance?
@@andrewcollingridge9429 If we limit our freedom by the maxim of that which does not harm it, government will turn paternalistic very fast and the gradual decay of liberty will be exacerbated. We seem to have forgotten that freedom and liberty do not come to us as a given. There are prices every generation pays for them, and so long as we recognize true liberty as being the universal superior element, we will continue to make such sacrifices. The words of Franklin make my case for me: "He who is willing to give up his freedom to purchase a temporary security deserves neither freedom nor security."
His voice is amazing!!
Really concise & informative now I understand other references to him I have read. Brian nearing 76
For some reason I thought of George Orwell.
He needs a video of his own.
+Mustafa Kulle But, would one argue that Orwell is in the category of philosopher? Personally, I see Orwell as a really astute social/political commentator and novelist. Like a John Steinbeck type of thinker or writer.
My ideas are based off of these pieces I have read from Orwell: 1984, Animal Farm, Road to Wigan Pier, Down and Out in Paris and London, Essays "Shooting an Elephant," "Charles Dickens," "Politics and the English Language," and "Why I Write".
+B. Levin so you haven't read much!
+B. Levin Well I remember seeing a video on Leo Tolstoy, so why not Orwell?
orwell is over? what an odd statement..I dont think any great writer can ever truly be "over"
Hereticalable I don't think we should discard Orwell as a relic of the past. Firstly, books like Animal Farm are a good reminder of Stalinism and should be taken as a cautionary tale, regardless of how likely it is in the future. Humanity is just too good at forgetting its own mistakes.Secondly, one could argue that we are living the reality of 1984, in a way, today, where political correctness has invaded logical discourse and our words and opinions are constantly policed. You are right that we are on the cusp of the realities of Brave New World, but that in no way discredits Orwell's commentary.
I wish you did a video on Chomsky! Addressing not only his political views but also his contribution to linguistics. I'd actually love if you guys had chapters on linguistics. I found some theories to be allegorical to philosophies and perspectives on life. We have more than Wittgenstein!

A nice summary of Locke's life. Thank you!
Latin, Greek and poetry should be more mainstream imo, that's how I was brought up though sadly with not enough exposure
0.0
I can get all of the works of John Locke mentioned in this video, plus "The Fundamental Constitutions Of Carolina" for about $1.00 on Kindle. 7 works of one of the most influential of Enlightenment thinkers for $1.00. I guess I'll be enjoying some interesting reading on my plane ride.
Impressing! Continue the channel we support you.
Keep up the great work. Brilliant and informative channel
Es quizás mi filósofo favorito, es un crack. Había leído unas cuantas páginas, pero me encontré una un léxico demasiado elevado para mi jejeje. Por cierto claramente entiendo y veo las bases de la Psicología especialmente la educacional.
Proud to say this is my cousin! I have always referenced him in my studies and it is wonderful to find that we are related.
congrats bro
understated, detailed and informing. great job
Awesome! Thank you for this video!
I have sometimes thought that the English Civil War was completed in the American War of Independence in the ideas of politics.
As an English man I have to regrettably agree.
Paul Llama It wasn't just the fact of taxation, repeatedly the Colonies asked for representation in Parliament, and were denied. The excessive taxation _without_ representation was the prime motivating factor. That and the forced quartering of Red Coats was the last straw.
"Don't tell me what I can't do!" - John Loche
Using these videos as great introductions to different concepts within Enlightenment philosophy for further study/investigation. Thanks
Many, many thanks. Sheer excellence.!! Thoroughly enjoyed.
Actually it was clearly a typo. The Second Amendment clearly says "The Right to Bear Rams"
k

+Alex Xavier Steel - D REALLY!!??? I thought is was the right to "bare arms". Like we didn't have to wear sleeves.
mathew hill indeed, they were against sleevery
The police werent happy when I cut of a bear's arms. I HAVE THE RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS
In my opinion, John Locke was the most important person to ever live. And also the person I most admire.
Even Napoleon did more
Thank you for your contribution.
The best channel on political science/ philosophy...... Keep up the good work guys .
If u have time please post videos on Indian political thinkers also .
Once again Great work guys.
i just want to say thank you to my 7th grade teacher for making me fall in love with locke and the enlightenment

***** Indeed, a great book it is :)
Im running out of school of life videos to watch. I wish there was a greek mythology series, i love the narrator's voice.
Thank u. I appreciate sharing your knowledge.
Grande pensador John Locke! Difícil é ser citado nas oratorias brasileira.
Please School of Life, I am begging:
Make a video on Edmund Burke and the issue of social leveling. It is the only backing I have found towards elitist ideals that strikes me as logical and I am fascinated by it.
Thumps up my comment please!
How do you think the philosophy of John Locke and Edmund Burke can be applied to Doug Wilson and his inability to build a cup winning team? Personally, I think DW is not that great of a GM and Nabokhov deserved better treatment.
@dieform fuckdemocracy
Thank you!
Yeah always manage to explain a figure or subject in a highly interesting way, keep up the great work
I love John Locke, it's so beautiful that our constitution is so heavenly based on his works. it's what allows america to be amazing.
Steven E did you change your mind 4 years later
@@marinasotelo1625 Hahahaha I see what you did there.
his ideology is great in some ways but also greatly mislead. Its self contradictory in nature in many ways. Don't idealize philosophers. You can benefit most from studying philosophy by taking a skeptical viewpoint and learning to identify the good aspects and flaws within philosophy. No philosophy is without flaws. Including locke's.
Could you do an episode on being second best (or anything less than first)? I find that media today has so much hype over being "the very best", but there is often no sympathy to those who came in second. The phrase second is the first loser is proof of that, as well as the commercial for the Pokemon tournament. There are many other examples like Karate Kid and many other films.
Locke was ahead of his time. What a brilliant thinker and so very relevant.
i love you, never change !
Lockes religious tolerance act is not so tolerant as you describe it. There was a prohibition of Catholicism and many other Christian branches because they were considered faithful to a foreign king ( the Pope ) and not the King of England.
+Samuel Palomera He was tolerant or their religious views but not their divided loyalties, and he had good reason to feel that way. When the Church of England broke away from the Catholic Church, the pope helped support an invasion to other throw the king. Also, there were papal states that the Catholic Church governed directly.
+Samuel Palomera I think the video is heavily Whig. I was going to say something about his influence on how we conceive gov. but let it slide.
Charles the second secretly became catholic.
There was an exemption for Catholics due to there loyalties to Rome, and for Atheist as they had no foundation for there promises. At the time it was meant to be a practical and utilitarian approach to persecution.
Bear arms... Nice one!
+z4k paws-n-claws baby!
well, you may not know this, but the right to bear arms was actually a part of the English bill of rights of/from 1689. Its just within the last 50 years or so that more strict gun laws were implemented into the UK.
Were do you think the people (of British descent) in the 13 colony's got [some of] their ideas from... it's important to remember that certain rights (bill of rights, laws, common law, etc) that the people in england/Britain enjoyed were not extended to those of the 13 colony's. That WAS extremely unfair and an understatement. The people of the 13 colony's knew this and of course was the biggest reason for revolution, blah blah rest is history.
Locke had a big influence on Thomas Jefferson, in particular.
