The Labor Theory of Property (Locke, pt. 6)
Sixth and final part of our series on John Locke, itself part of a larger series Foundations of Western Political Thought. In this video we examine Locke's famous labor theory of property. We center much of our attention on Locke's theory of land ownership, with some discussion around Locke's analysis of the claims of Native Americans to hunting grounds in North America, and the consequent clash of civilizations between Indians and frontier settlers over land.
