The work of John Locke is not only the foundational exposition of the political theory of the English philosopher, but also one of the classic texts of the European political tradition.

Here, the political ideology that became known as liberalism is established, which for centuries has decisively influenced the formation of Western societies.

Locke presents his political theory in the form of an analysis of the emergence of society, the nature of governments, and the relationship of powers among them; this analysis is, in turn, integrated into the broader framework of a theory of natural law and human rights.

The Greek edition is accompanied by an introduction and commentary, as well as bibliographical references that will help the reader deepen their study of both this work and the liberal political tradition in general.
