- John Locke: Second Treatise on Government
- Thomas Hobbes: Leviathan
- William Blackstone: Commentaries on the Laws of England
- Jean Jacques Rousseau: The Social Contract
Explanation:
1. <em>Two Treatises of Government</em> (1689) is one of John Locke's most famous works. In this work, he established the principle that men are naturally free and equal, but with the purpose to interact in a healthy society, it was necessary that they transferred some of their rights to a government that the people chose and changed when they deemed necessary.
2. Thomas Hobbes published <em>Leviathan: The Matter, Form, and Power of a Commonwealth, Ecclesiastical and Civil</em> in 1651. With this book, he became the first philosopher who developed the concept of Social Contract.
3. The most influential work of William Blackstone was the <em>Commentaries on the Laws of England</em> (1765-1769) in which he fully described the doctrines of English law.
4. Jean-Jacques Rousseau published <em>The Social Contract </em>in 1762, which was a work that provided the means to establish a political community that would benefit the modern society.
