Baumgold. 330 $aThese essays contest the truism that the social contract is a modern political idea. Just as Rawls came to acknowledge that his political theory built in the parochial horizon of his time, Hobbes?s, Grotius?s, and Locke?s theories presuppose their ancien regime world. Despite their universalizing language, Hobbes?s and Locke?s theories addressed the age-old issue of resistance to tyrants and assumed the framework of hereditary monarchy. Essays in the volume also relate the logic of their contract claims back to Bodin?s and Grotius?s defenses of absolute sovereignty and direct attention to the affinity between an ?absolutism of fear? and Hume?s sensibility. For politically-inclined readers, these theories come to life by being read as treatises on politics in the early-modern state. 410 0$aBrill's studies in intellectual history ;$vv. 187. 606 $aSocial contract 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSocial contract. 676 $a320.1/1 700 $aBaumgold$b Deborah$0929613 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459270403321 996 $aContract theory in historical context$92089580 997 $aUNINA
