Product Description

Machiavelli, Hobbes, and Locke each sought a new foundation for political order. This book serves as a reader's companion to Machiavellis The Prince, Hobbess Leviathan, and Lockes 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 readers reflection, and finally suggests a firmer foundation for a theory of political obligation than Hobbess and Lockes consent theories. Also included are bibliographical essays keyed to select bibliographies, providing readers with a wide-ranging, critical reviewof 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.
