Thomas Hobbes and John Locke both set out important arguments on the nature of government that continue to influence the way in which we think about the relationship between the governed and the government. Compare and contrast Hobbes’ and Locke’s arguments‚ with specific reference both to their reading of the “state of nature” and the kind of contract that each imagines to exist in the very concept of a governed community.
