What was john locke’s part in the american revolution

John Locke's part in the American Revolution: His ideas influenced America's founders. Locke's Second Treatise on Civil Government (1689) expounded on ideas of government created by the people and for the people. Locke asserted that it was a law of nature that all persons are equal and independent and "no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty, or possessions."

social contract theory basically says that all individuals are born equal, and provided a god given right to consent to be governed. american government is based of this

thomas hobbes and john locke said that we are selfish, individualistic, and constantly at war with each other, therefore we need to be controlled. 

government is defined as the legitimate use of force to control human behavior within territorial boundaries, here comes in hobbes and locke.

hobbes takes the part about controlling human behavior. while locke takes the part of legitimate use of force, since force is not legitimate unless there is consent of the people. 

there are basically 3 goals of the government: 1) maintain order by protecting life and property. 2) providing public goods, those which are typically not provided by the public sector, such as roads and education. 3) promote equality be it political, opportunist or outcome equality.
