Well from what I know about John Locke is that John Locke was a philosopher who held different more positive views of human nature. He believed in natural rights of life, liberty, and property, and that all people are born free and equal with those three natural rights. Locke also believed that government had a moral obligation to guarantee that individuals always retained sovereignty over their own rights, including ownership of property that resulted from their own labor.
I hope this helps. :)
