  • Hobbes on Liberty1

    M M Goldsmith, Maurice GoldsmithARTICLEHobbes Studies1989

    It has become common to view Hobbes as a 'liberal', indeed as one of the founders of liberalism. Despite this characterization, there are few works which examine his views on liberty closely. The first part of this paper attempts to explicate what Hobbes says about liberty, mainly in Leviathan, especially in relation to recent philosophical analysis of the subject. In the second part, I examine the relation between Hobbes's views about liberty an…

  • Liberty and Economics: A Reconsideration

    Open AccessM M Goldsmith, Maurice GoldsmithARTICLEPolitical Studies1984References: 3

    The arguments presented by Fred M. Frohock and David J. Sylvan in ‘Liberty, Economics and Evidence’, Political Studies, 31 (1983), 541–55 need reconsideration. They attribute a theory of economic development to liberalism, but it is held by both liberal and other thinkers only after the late eighteenth century. This theory, that a certain level of economic development is a necessary prerequisite for freedom, is different from the widely-held anti…

  • Locke, Revolution Principles, and the Formation of Whig Ideology

    Open AccessRichard Ashcraft, M M Goldsmith et al.ARTICLEThe Historical Journal1983Cited by: 7References: 6

    In the immediate aftermath of the Glorious Revolution, there appeared an anonymous pamphlet, Political aphorisms , which purported to instruct its readers in ‘true maxims of government’. The identity of the author of this bold doctrinal claim is not known, and while it would be useful to have this knowledge, it is not, for reasons which will become clear, the most crucial element of the story. What is important is the historical significance of t…

  • The Entitlement Theory of Justice Considered

    Open AccessM M Goldsmith, Maurice GoldsmithARTICLEPolitical Studies1979Cited by: 2

    In Anarchy, State and Utopia Robert Nozick advocates an entitlement theory of justice. But each of its three principles has difficulties. The right of acquisition, which Nozick regards as Lockean, lacks the base of Locke's right to property in a right to life, nor does it stand, Nozick admits, on a utilitarian justification. The right of transfer, more complex than it first seems, includes unavoidable restrictions on voluntary transfers even on N…

  • Mandeville and the Spirit of Capitalism

    Open AccessM M Goldsmith, Maurice GoldsmithARTICLEJournal of British Studies1977Cited by: 1

    Greed, avarice, rapacity, the quest for filthy lucre, are none of them traits peculiar to western Europeans of the last few hundred years — the capitalist epoch. Eastern potentates, feudal lords, magnates of the church, humble peasants, noble Romans, cultured Greeks and many others have been infected with the love of gold. The desire for wealth is not confined to capitalism; wealth for high living, conspicuous display or hoarding are all non-capi…
