Question

The English philosopher John Locke wrote:

Answer 1

Answer: Only governments could provide rights to citizens.

Explanation: Locke uses the idea of the social contract, and argues that the legitimate government can only be based on the consent of free and equal people who start from the state of nature and are all sovereign over themselves. In this way, Locke tries to limit the possible forms of legitimate regime to exclude absolutism, and at the same time, justify the resistance to the crown from the foundations of the constitutional division of powers.

Answer 2

Answer:

The English philosopher John Locke wrote: That all people have the natural right to life and freedom.

Explanation:

This is so, since Locke is one of the great thinkers of Liberalism, who defends individual freedom, advocates the limited State (restricts State intervention in social, economic and cultural life), promotes private initiative, as a means to economic growth.
