The Reception of Locke's Politics cover

Locke has iconic status as the "founder of Western liberalism", yet his legacy is contested by both conservatives and social democrats. These volumes contain over 60 important texts, with scholarly annotation and explanatory headnotes, that debate Locke's political ideas.

'a most valuable collection of texts that deserves to be in every major library visited by scholars and students interested in the political discourses of the eighteenth-century anglophone world' Enlightenment and Dissent 'an impressive scholarly achievement, showing wide learning and the fruits of much hard work. The texts are presented without excessive bibliographical punctiliousness, in many cases in their entirety, and with brief but helpful indications of the contexts in which they were penned.' English Historical Review
