AleksAgata [21]

The Enlightenment thinkers correctly matched is A. John Locke - natural rights.

<h3>Enlightenment thinkers </h3>

Enlightenment thinkers are philosophers that questioned traditional authority and pressed on the notion that human reasoning could be improved through rationality. These thinkers added value to reason, science, religion and  “natural rights” such as life, liberty, and property.

Who were the Enlightenment thinkers ?

  • Adam Smith.
  • Baron de Montesquieu.
  • Benjamin Franklin.
  • Jean Jacques Rousseau.
  • John Locke.
  • Mary Wollstonecraft.
  • Olympe de Gouge.
  • Thomas Hobbes

We are more concerned about;

John Locke debated that natural rights which include life, liberty, and property should never be denied an individual or surrendered by a person as it was given by nature.

Jean- Jacques Rousseau believed in introducing political and ethical thinking into new channels. He sharpened music, arts and trade.

Baron de Montesquieu proposed that the best form of government was one built on the delegation of power and kept in check to avoid one from   becoming too powerful in the expense of the other.

Hence, the Enlightenment thinkers correctly matched is John Locke ( natural rights).

What strategies did slaves employ to resist, revolt, and sustain their own independent communities and cultures? how did slaves
astra-53 [7]
<span>The major ways in which slaves resisted were through rebellions and their own forms of violence. In addition, they were able to run away from the plantation, which was fraught with its own set of risks. Third, they could take smaller forms of resistance, such as breaking the tools the owner had, which would slow down the overall process of working. Women were able to do this more easily, since they were not expected to work as hard as the males and could feign illness or some other way to slow down their overall rate of work.</span>
