Books by James (McGill University Tully

John Locke's theory of property is perhaps the most distinctive and the most influential aspect of his political theory. In this book James Tully uses an hermeneutical and analytical approach to offer a revolutionary revision of early modern theories of property, focusing particularly on that of Locke.

This book brings together Professor Tully's most original and innovative statements on Locke in a systematic treatment of the latter's thought that is at once contextual and critical. The themes treated include government, toleration, discipline, property, individualism, power, labour, self-ownership, community, liberty, participation, and revolution.
