A Note on Locke's “The Great Art of Government
This note explores the ambiguity in John Locke's assertion that “the great art of government” consists in the increase and right employment of “lands” or “hands.” The dominant interpretation is that Locke thought governmental practice should aim at the extension and proper cultivation of land, while others assert that, given the context of the labour theory of value and Locke's concern to increase population, a more suitable interpretation is tha…
The Senecan Moment
The Senecan Moment:Patronage and Philosophy in the Eighteenth Century Edward Andrew This piece examines the place of patronage in eighteenth-century thought and specifically Diderot's analysis of Seneca's philosophy of the art of graceful giving and grateful receiving.1 Patronage, in Burke's definition, is "the tribute which opulence owes to genius."2 However, the patronage of thought has been rarely discussed by political theorists, and when men…
Hobbes on Conscience Within the Law and Without
This article seeks to clarify the meaning of conscience and to exhibit its role in the philosophy of Hobbes. The author compares Hobbes's philosophy to Locke's doctrine. Instead of the usual contrast of Hobbes, the enemy to the claims of conscience, and Locke, the defender of the rights of conscience, he shows that Hobbes found a place for conscience within the law—the rights of defendants to a jury of their choice, and the rights of jurors to a …

Simone Weil on the Injustice of Rights-Based Doctrines
This paper explores Simone Weil's objections to a philosophy grounded on human rights. Weil thinks impersonal justice cannot be expressed in terms of personal rights. Rights, for Weil, are personal possessions; they are claimed or borne by some subject or person (me, you, her or them). The right or the just, however, is not susceptible to possession. When one substitutes a personal pronoun for the definite article before the word right (my right …
Inalienable Right, Alienable Property and Freedom of Choice
This article attempts to illuminate a contradiction at the heart of the notion of natural rights. Natural rights are commonly thought to be both inalienable and the property of individuals. As the right or the law is privatized as my rights, her rights, our rights or their rights, rights come to be viewed as personal properties. A distinction is made between personal possession and private property (which entails the title to alienate what is own…
Descent to the Cave
Considerable controversy in recent decades has centered on the question of why the philosopher in Plato's Republic would condescend to participate in politics. The analogy between justice in the state and in the individual soul breaks down as justice in the state demands functions of the philosopher for which he has no inclination or expertise. The just rule of reason is possible for individuals but impossible for states, unless philosophers can …
Class in Itself and Class Against Capital
This note argues that, widespread opinion to the contrary, Marx did not make a distinction between a class in itself and a class for itself but between a class against capital and a class for itself. Marx's formulation of a “class against capital” exhibits a political dimension lacking in a “class in itself”; political institutions and arrangements are not simply the instrument or the expression of a pre-existing class structure but rather condit…
A Note on the Unity of Theory and Practice in Marx and Nietzsche
Marx's Theory of Classes
Science et idéologie dans la théorie des classes de MarxCet article vise à démontrer l'articulation des principes qui fondent la théorie des classes sociales chez Marx de façon à permettre une meilleure compréhension de la continuité fondamentale qui lie l'humanitarisme du jeune Marx au matérialisme scientifique des œuvres plus mûres. En réponse à ceux qui considèrent l'humanisme « idéologique » des Manuscrits de 1844 comme étant pré-scientifique…
Work and Freedom in Marcuse and Marx
L'article examine le système de pensée que Marcuse appelle la « rationalité technologique ». Ce système assigne, comme fin à l'histoire, la domination de la nature par la maîtrise de ses forces, dans le monde extérieur comme dans la conscience humaine. D'après les tenants de ce système, les projets historiques alternatifs sont une perte de temps et d'efforts que les hommes rationnels doivent repousser.Marx n'a pas été un adepte de cette théorie, …
