He that is to govern a whole nation, must read in himself, not this, or that particular man; but mankind. Leviathan is both a magnificent literary achievement and the greatest work of political philosophy in the English language. Permanently challenging, it has found new applications and new refutations in every generation. Hobbes argues that human beings are first and foremost concerned with their own individual desires and fears. He shows that a conflict of each against every man can only be avoided by the adoption of a compact to enforce peace. The compact involves giving up some of our natural freedom to a sovereign power which will enforce the laws of peace on all citizens. Hobbes also analyses the subversive forces - religion, ambition, private conscience - that threaten to destroy the body politic, Leviathan itself, and return us to the state of war. This new edition reproduces the first printed text, retaining the original punctuation but modernizing the spelling. It offers exceptionally thorough and useful annotation, an introduction that guides the reader through the complexities of Hobbes's arguments, and a substantial index.

評分很惭愧我才看完这本震古烁今的政治哲学著作。作者托马斯 霍布斯生活在17世纪,出身贫寒,不过自幼聪颖好思考,去了一个大伯爵家当家庭教师,自此走入上流社会,与迄今仍然影响力很大的名流交往,这些人包括伽利略、培根、笛卡尔。他的一生是不断适应环境、力图生存的一生,曾在...
評分罗马法规定,有一种罪人,叫做“神圣的人”,其特点在于: (1)他不可被用来祭祀, (2)人人可以杀死他而不被判处谋杀。 其中(1)表明他是神法的例外,(2)表明他是人法的例外。 在古罗马,人法和神法是相互联系在一起的。在人法中处死一个人,必然是作为给神的献祭的,...
評分霍布斯的逻辑 《利维坦》这本书是霍布斯描述的一种关于“国家”的构想。他的逻辑是:1、基于人性,如果没有强力的约束,人类一定会陷入无休止的暴力内乱;2、人们当然会遵循自然法,其中第二自然法似乎特别重要:“在别人也愿意这样做的条件下,当一个人为了和平与自卫的目的认...
評分今天,当我们谈到民主与专制时,恐怕没有人会怀疑两者孰优孰劣。似乎历史已经向我们证明了:专制是邪恶的、落后的、愚昧的象征,民主是正义的、先进的、智慧的象征,民主制度终将取代专制制度。 然而,这样的普世观念是我们自己认真思考后得出的结论吗?这其中是否掺杂有偏见?...
