Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Enquiry Concerning the Nature and End of a National Militia: Wherein, From First Principles, and a Short Review of Our Present Condition Both at Home and Abroad Is Deduced the Practicability and Immediate Necessity of Such an Establishment We have the Happiness to live in a Nation, where Liberty is not only enjoyed, but established upon the most lasting and generous Principles: The Freedom of the Press, and the Freedom of Debate, have vanquished and put to silence the most strenuous Defenders of Tyranny; and it is now universally acknowledged, That Government is nothing more than a Political Compact among Men, for the better Preservation of their Lives, Liberties, and Possessions. - That the Magistrate, in the Nature of the thing, can be intitled to no other Priviledge, Power, or Prerogative, than what is necessary for the better Attainment of that End. - That all the Power of the Magistrate is, and must be, derived from the People. - That the Magistrate, who possesses a Strength independent of, and superiour to the People, is a Tyrant; and the People Slaves. - About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
