ロックの市民社会とアメリカ植民地

―有限的社会と自然の無限性―

抄録

Innately free and equal people build a free and equal civil society, though the society is the exclusive state of autonomous proprietors, especially landowners. However there is no contradiction. Because Locke offers two ways, inland improvement and outward colonization. In the former, although the poor can become managing proprietors by borrowing capital, everyone can not do so. Therefore colonizing America in its natural state is very important in Locke's theory of civil society of mono autonomous proprietors.
