funny as this seems, this is my research paper topic...this website has helped me extremely: www.gardenoflearning.com/4philosopherarticle.pdf it basically breaks down what Hobbes, Locke, Montesquieu, and Rosseau believe
Fellow philosophers, like John Locke include Voltaire, Adam Smith, and Rousseau. Montesquieu, Beccaria, and Diderot are also comparable to Locke in his theories.
John Locke, Baron de Montesquieu, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau provided the ideas that our constitution was founded on. Locke defined "natural rights", while Montesquieu laid out separation of power, and Rousseau gave us The Social Contract.
Hobbes believed liberty was the absence of external interference in one's actions, Locke viewed it as the protection of natural rights and freedoms, Rousseau saw it as submission to the general will of society, and Montesquieu emphasized the importance of a system of checks and balances to protect individual liberties.
The philosophers you seek are John Locke, Jean Jacques Rousseau, Voltaire, and Montesquieu.
