Executive Legislative Judicial Balance of Power Baron de Montesquieu (1689-1755) Montesquieu believed in political liberty – namely through “separation of powers” where different parts of government should have different powers to check or “balance” the power of other areas: 1.“Executive” – The King and his ministers to carry out the law. 2.“Legislative” – A parliament to hold power to make the law. 3.“Judicial” – Judges to interpret and apply the law.

16. Jean Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) John Locke (1632-1704) John Locke was an English thinker who believed that all people were essentially good and possessed natural rights – like liberty, the right to property, and life. He spread the thought that a government should only be in power as long as the people are happy with their rule. Rousseau was a writer who believed in the “Social Contract” which would benefit all of society. He believed that liberty was every person’s natural right and that a legitimate government ruled with the consent of the people.

17. Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679) Not everyone progressed in thinking about liberty and freedoms. After witnessing the horrors of civil war in England, Thomas Hobbes was convinced that all humans were naturally wicked and, left to themselves, would give free reign to their evil ways. He wrote that governments were there to protect people from their own evils, and that the best government was an “absolute monarch” with complete and total power.
