あらすじ・解説
This episode discusses the hat trick of logic played by John Locke in chapter 7 of Second Treatise. He sets out a deductive argument that purports to prove that a democracy that requires a unanimous vote before any proposal becomes law is a logical impossibility, that is, such a democracy cannot exist. Why? Listen to this episode to find out.
In the second part of this episode, we will discuss Locke's distinction between express and tacit consent, and the application of this to one's duty to obey the law.
