The First Treatise critiques patriarchalism by systematically dismantling Robert Filmer's arguments, while the Second Treatise presents John Locke's vision for a just society grounded in natural rights and social contract theory. Published anonymously in 1689, this influential work of political philosophy lays the foundation for modern democratic thought, advocating for individual rights and the legitimacy of government derived from the consent of the governed.
