このコンテンツについて

In this episode of Timeless Thinkers, we explore one of the most transformative ideas in the history of political philosophy: Consent as the Sole Basis of Legitimate Government.

For John Locke, no ruler, no institution, and no government can claim rightful authority without the consent of the governed. This radical idea shattered centuries of tradition, challenging the divine right of kings and rewriting the foundation of political legitimacy.

In this episode, we examine:
• How Locke’s idea of consent redefined the purpose of government
• Why legitimacy depends on voluntary agreement, not fear or divine command
• The tension between obedience, freedom, and collective will
• How this principle shaped the Enlightenment, liberal democracy, and modern human rights

Locke’s words, “Men being by nature all free, equal, and independent, no one can be subjected to the political power of another without his consent.", remain one of the most powerful statements of human freedom ever written.
