このコンテンツについて
In Part 6 of our John Locke Series, we uncover the idea that changed the world, the principle that no government has the right to tax, rule, or legislate without the consent of the people.
“No taxation without representation.”
It’s one of the most famous political slogans in history, but long before it fueled revolutions in America and France, it began in the mind of a 17th-century philosopher: John Locke. For Locke, property wasn’t just land or wealth. It was the natural extension of human labor, liberty, and life itself.
But Locke also warned that when rulers use law to take property without consent, they destroy the very purpose of government, and people have a right to resist. In this episode, we explore:
• Locke’s revolutionary theory of property and ownership
• How taxation without consent violates the social contract
• The moral and political limits of legislative power
• How Locke’s ideas inspired modern constitutional democracy
His “dangerous idea” didn’t stay in books — it became the spark for revolutions that redefined power, freedom, and law.
