In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from options given below:

Correct Answer: (a) Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
Solution:

John Locke's "Two Treatises of Government' (1689) emphasizes the concept of natural right and contract theory. The 'First' treatise of Locke's was an attack on a contemporary religious philosopher, Sir Robert Filmer. Filmer was arguing that Adam, the First man in the Bible, had absolute authority over his children, their children and all succeeding people throughout history, since his power was ordained by God. Locke thought this was absurd.
In the second treatise about that Locke really laid out his theories about power, governance & reason. A popular idea at the time was the concept of the 'state of nature' (Spread largely by Thomas Hobbes). The state of nature put forth that human beings, in their original from, existed in a condition of absolute freedom and equality.
Hobbes claimed this 'state' was actually really bad-since freedom meant not only that you could do what you wanted, but also that anyone else could, too (like rob you, and kill you). It is Locke fully realized that for the full establishment of his new theory of state and obligation he must refute both filmier & Hobbes. Thus, statement I, II both are correct.
