A Critique. 330 $aMachiavelli, Hobbes, and Locke each sought a new foundation for political order. This book serves as a reader's companion to Machiavelli?s The Prince, Hobbes?s Leviathan, and Locke?s 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 reader?s reflection, and finally suggests a firmer foundation for a theory of political obligation than Hobbes?s and Locke?s consent theories. Also included are bibliographical essays keyed to select bibliographies, providing readers with a wide-ranging, critical review of 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. 606 $aPolitical theory 606 $aPolitical philosophy 606 $aDemocracy 606 $aPolitical Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911010 606 $aPolitical Philosophy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E37000 606 $aDemocracy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911050 615 0$aPolitical theory. 615 0$aPolitical philosophy. 615 0$aDemocracy. 615 14$aPolitical Theory. 615 24$aPolitical Philosophy. 615 24$aDemocracy. 676 $a320.1 700 $aBookman$b John T$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01061930 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910338054203321 996 $aA Reader?s Companion to The Prince, Leviathan, and the Second Treatise$92521426 997 $aUNINA
