45 Topic 3 Document Based Investigation Directions: Read the documents and answer the questions that follow each document. Document A: from The Leviathan Introduction As part of his book The Leviathan, Thomas Hobbes wrote about individual rights. He believed that people in a society give up natural rights to avoid conflict with others in their society. Primary Source And because the condition of man is a condition of war of every one against every one, in which case every one is governed by his own reason, and there is nothing he can make use of that may not be a help unto him in preserving his life against his enemies; it followeth that in such a condition every man has a right to every thing, even to one another's body. And therefore, as long as this natural right of every man to every thing endureth, there can be no security to any man, how strong or wise soever he be... And consequently it is a precept, or general rule of reason: that every man ought to endeavor [endeavor (v.) to try] peace, as far as he has hope of obtaining it; and when he cannot obtain it, that he may seek and use all helps and advantages of war. From this fundamental law of nature, by which men are commanded to endeavor peace, is derived this second law: that a man be willing, when others are so too, as far forth as for peace and defense of himself he shall think it necessary, to lay down this right to all things; and be contented with so much liberty against other men as he would allow other men against himself. For as long as every man holdeth this right, of doing anything he liketh; so long are all men in the condition of war. But if other men will not lay down their right, as well as he, then there is no reason for anyone to divest [divest (v.) remove; cast off] himself of his: for that were to expose himself to prey. Thomas Hobbes, The Leviathan, Chapter According to Hobbes, if people choose to live by just their natural rights alone, then they may be A. subject to a condition of war. B. likely to find peace. C. exempt from the laws of their society. D. able to follow their own reason. 2. Hobbes believed that people give up some liberty in order to A. gain peace and safety. B. require others to give up theirs. C. gain power over others. D. avoid being arrested. 3. Connect Hobbes says that the condition of man is one in which every one is governed by his own reason. What do you think Hobbes is proposing as an alternative to the condition of man? 45

46 Document B: from Two Treatises of Government Introduction English philosopher John Locke believed that all humans have certain natural rights from birth to death. In his Two Treatises of Government, Locke details his ideas about the right to life and liberty. Primary Source But though this be a state of liberty, yet it is not a state of license [license (n.) permit to do something]: though man in that state have an uncontrollable liberty to dispose of his person or possessions, yet he has not liberty to destroy himself, or so much as any creature in his possession, but where some nobler use than its bare preservation calls for it. The state of nature has a law of nature to govern it, which obliges every one: and reason, which is that law, teaches all mankind, who will but consult it, that being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty, or possessions: for men being all the workmanship of one omnipotent [omnipotent (adj.) all-powerful], and infinitely wise maker; all the servants of one sovereign master, sent into the world by his order, and about his business; they are his property, whose workmanship they are, made to last during his, not one another's pleasure: and being furnished with like faculties, sharing all in one community of nature, there cannot be supposed any such subordination[subordination (n.) state of being lower in status] among us, that may authorize us to destroy one another, as if we were made for one another's uses, as the inferior ranks of creatures are for ours. Every one, as he is bound to preserve himself, and not to quit his station willfully, so by the like reason, when his own preservation comes not in competition, ought he, as much as he can, to preserve the rest of mankind, and may not, unless it be to do justice on an offender, take away, or impair [impair (v.) to harm] the life, or what tends to the preservation of the life, the liberty, health, limb, or goods of another. John Locke, Two Treatises of Government, What does Locke claim is the source for the idea of the right to life, health, liberty or possessions? A. the state of nature B. the will of the monarch C. the state of license D. the laws of the land 2. In this passage, the terms omnipotent, maker, and sovereign master refer to A. mankind. B. government leaders. C. the state. D. God. 3. Evaluate Arguments Under what condition does Locke say it is justified to take away another person s life, liberty, or property? 46
