Thomas Hobbes law

Project description
As discussed in this week’s lecture notes, for Thomas Hobbes law carries with it the hope of making social life bearable; while, for John Locke law has the potential to make individuals better off than they had been in a community without positive law and legal institutions.

Using the course lecture notes and Michael White’s readings on Hobbes and Locke (found on Blackboard), comment on Hobbes’ and Locke’s different approaches to the role law plays in society.
