John Locke's political philosophy emphasizes the natural rights of individuals, asserting that all men are inherently free and equal. In his Two Treatises of Government, he challenges the divine right of kings and advocates for a social contract where individuals consent to delegate some rights to a government that exists to protect life, liberty, and property. He argues that governments must operate with the consent of the governed and can be overthrown if they fail to uphold these rights, highlighting the importance of majority rule and the separation of powers.
