What was John Lockes contribution to European history?

John Locke was a famous philosopher who believed that humans, when born, had a clear mental state. He said that humans changed because of their surroundings. He believed that government was only there to protect human's right to life, liberty, and property. He believed that government was an agreement between the ruler and the ruled, and if the ruler failed on his part of the bargin, the people had the right and responsibility to get rid of the ruler. His beliefs are commonly contrasted to those of Thomas Hobbes, who believed practically the opposite. He believed that humans were vile creatures, who needed a government, because without one, people would be living in a constant state of warfare. He believed that government was a contract between the people and the ruler for protection, and that if the people didn't like the ruler they were stuck with him, none the less. Hope this helps!
