Question: Locke's theory of government moves from a depiction of the natural condition of human beings; to a collective agreement to exit this natural condition and form a political society; to the establishment of governmental power. Why do you think Locke wants us to think about government in this imaginary way? In other words, what purpose(s) does it serve to imagine government as a product of a social contract emerging out of a state of nature? What do you think is useful about this way of thinking about the origins of power power, and what might be concealed or obscured by Locke's story?
