Academic Level:
Please read the excerpt from John Lockes Second Treatise on Civil Government and then answer the questions following:
Sect. 4. To understand political power right, and derive it from its original, we must consider, what state all men are
naturally in, and that is, a state of perfect freedom to order their actions, and dispose of their possessions and persons, as
they think fit, within the bounds of the law of nature, without asking leave, or depending upon the will of any other
man.
A state also of equality, wherein all the power and jurisdiction is reciprocal, no one having more than another; there
being nothing more evident, than that creatures of the same species and rank, promiscuously born to all the same
advantages of nature, and the use of the same faculties, should also be equal one amongst another without subordination
or subjection, unless the lord and master of them all should, by any manifest declaration of his will, set one above
another, and confer on him, by an evident and clear appointment, an undoubted right to dominion and sovereignty.
Answer the following questions in complete sentences:
1. According to Locke, In what state are all men born?

2. According to Locke, if there is a leader, how should he or she be chosen?
