Yes it was a public high-school. No it was not mandatory. However, education is a choice either way. No one is forced to go to school, and especially not high-school. By that time, we all have the individual choice to drop out after a certain period of time. Whether a course is "Mandatory," or not isn't why a kid loses his interest in education. Education is already beautiful. If someone decides for themselves to believe otherwise, it's their own fault. Any excuse otherwise, like blaming the institution, blaming parents, blaming past failures, well, that's just the efforts of the individual to try to make up for his perceived mistakes in life. In my opinion, that person shouldn't be so hard on themselves. Education isn't the most important thing in the world.

Well, if those kids drop out only after two years, whatever they learned, probably won't have any use in the world after graduation. If they do go beyond the two years, and actually WANT to learn, then, I'm sure, that it doesn't matter what they are taught about that unless, they choose to have a career that revolves around it. Also, you are required to take a political course in college. So, going to college, might help people out

Advocate for the pyramids to come down, advocate for all native American monuments to come down, advocate the dismantling for all of Asia to be destroyed. All these civilizations used slavery. England, Canada, Europe, and America ended slavery because of the works of Locke and other Western philosophers.

John Locke Fun Fact: Locke was going to become a doctor, till he met Earl of Shaftsburry (very political figure). What to do about differing religious views? Toleration - People CAN'T (lacking of ability) determine which is a true religious standpoint. - Even if you could, no one can make (by violence) you genuinely believe something. - Religious uniformity leads to more social chaos, than allowing diversity, Who should rule the country? -God gives that authority. - The rule must make people comfortable in society - The ruler has to respect everyone's freedom and property. Beyond that the people have the right to overthrow their rulers. How should we educate our children? - People's views are shaped by their experiences, as they are blank slates when they are born. Therefore, educate them right, and early. - They should be taught practical things such as ethics, business, psychology, science, etc. Important definition: State of nature, when we have all rights before joining society. (as we consent to give up some rights to live in society)

Its interesting... and fitting... that much of this video features Henry VIII. Much of modern political philosophy, arguably, could be traced (indirectly... ish) to Henry VIII. As mentioned, much of political philosophy at the time was centered around the divine right of kings. Political power was derived from, and dependent on, God. A person ruled because God allowed it. Then Henry VIII came along. As the song goes, Henry VIII had a lot of wives, but, for the purposes of this story, the only one that actually matters is his first wife, Catherine of Aaragon. Henry wanted an heir. Catherine did not produce one, so in Henry's 30s he decided to look for a new spouse. At the time, England was Catholic, so he requested from the Pope permission to annul his marriage. Divorce and annulment were not seen as valid by Catholic religious law, so it was denied. Long story, short... Henry essentially came to the conclusion that the Pope was not the King; HE was the King and, if the Pope wasn't going to approve it, then Henry was going to make his own church where it was allowed. End of the day, in 1534, Henry VIII created the Church of England (Anglican) separate from the Church of Rome, and they mutually excommunicated each other. All so he could divorce his wife. The ramifications of that action, however, were huge... especially in political philosophy. The thought went, if the power of the King was at the pleasure of God... and the king just rejected God... and nothing happened... then what does that mean? Obviously, the rational answer is that power doesn't derive from God. So, if it doesn't derive from God, then where does political power come from? That act, along with various revolutions at the time, caused an renaissance in political philosophy in the late 16th and early 17th century that examined the sources of power and rights, and lead to the development of schools of thought like Hobbes's, Locke's, and Rousseau's Social Contract Theories. It's fascinating stuff.

Firstly, books like Animal Farm are a good reminder of Stalinism and should be taken as a cautionary tale, regardless of how likely it is in the future. Humanity is just too good at forgetting its own mistakes.Secondly, one could argue that we are living the reality of 1984, in a way, today, where political correctness has invaded logical discourse and our words and opinions are constantly policed. You are right that we are on the cusp of the realities of Brave New World, but that in no way discredits Orwell's commentary.

any updates on the book? Id like to check it out given the circumstances of education nowadays

Yeah always manage to explain a figure or subject in a highly interesting way, keep up the great work

Using these videos as great introductions to different concepts within Enlightenment philosophy for further study/investigation. Thanks

Could you do an episode on being second best (or anything less than first)? I find that media today has so much hype over being "the very best", but there is often no sympathy to those who came in second. The phrase second is the first loser is proof of that, as well as the commercial for the Pokemon tournament. There are many other examples like Karate Kid and many other films.

Thanks TSOF for keeping Locke in the public mind

Deserves a thumbs-up!

That's the content I subscribed for! You guys should stick with philosophy, politics and history.

Grande pensador John Locke! Difícil é ser citado nas oratorias brasileira.

this was a great video! thanks!! i liked it a lot, John Locke seems like a nice guy.

The best channel on political science/ philosophy...... Keep up the good work guys . If u have time please post videos on Indian political thinkers also . Once again Great work guys.

well, you may not know this, but the right to bear arms was actually a part of the English bill of rights of/from 1689. Its just within the last 50 years or so that more strict gun laws were implemented into the UK. Were do you think the people (of British descent) in the 13 colony's got [some of] their ideas from... it's important to remember that certain rights (bill of rights, laws, common law, etc) that the people in england/Britain enjoyed were not extended to those of the 13 colony's. That WAS extremely unfair and an understatement. The people of the 13 colony's knew this and of course was the biggest reason for revolution, blah blah rest is history. Locke had a big influence on Thomas Jefferson, in particular.

So many wise words, yet some terrible conclusions as well. Very good episode.

Like the idea that "a state of nature" would be peaceful, here Hobbes is much closer. No "primitive" societies (about as close to "a state of nature we can observe) have ever been particularly peaceful or existing in a pleasant state. Or the idea that languages, art and music are not useful for children's education. Creativity and innovation doesn't stem from thinking in a straight line. Or for that matter the over-emphasis on early childhood as a foundation for our personality, as if our personality doesn't constantly evolve, and can change at any age, not just early childhood. In general I'm very much in favor of many of Locke's ideas, but as with any revolutionary ideas, they often become a little too sharp around the edges... life is evolution, not revolution.

+Magnus Nygaard it depends on how you define what a peaceful/pleasant state it's subjective to perspective.

+Magnus Nygaard No primitive society ever lived without a ruler. As far as humankind is concerned, there has always been a ruler of a pack, who as it turned out, got the first bite of the hunt. No such ruler waits for their turn to power. They see vulnerability, and then take their opportunity. Locke's argument is about the OVERWHELMING majority of human population in history, who have want to be left alone. The peaceful live and die, while the loud and violent get their name in history.

+Magnus Nygaard Hello Magnus, I believe we have crossed paths before. I saw your comment here just after I left my own and will repeat it here, because I believe you'd like to see it: "It is because of him (Locke) that we believe that governments should not tyrannise their subjects, that we try so hard to give our children good childhoods" Its a shame he didn't think this applied to Slaves, Native Americans and the children of the poorhouses - none of whose individual (liberal) rights he supported. He even argued that beggars be forced to wear badges to identify them on the streets, not unlike how the Nazis would later identify the Jews. Locke may have done a lot of good, but this myopic, saccharine sweet viewpoint doesn't describe anybody who has studied him. And it doesn't do any justice in educating your audience either. I'm disappointed."

What a wonderful and beautifully done video. Thanks a lot

Great video👍👍 there shd b separate videos on each of the books mentioned, , explaining them thoroughly. I believe you are competent for doing it.
