Essay question:
How did the Enlightenment influence the Atlantic Revolutions?
● Choose one philosopher to explain their Enlightenment ideas
John Locke asserted that all people had natural, inalienable rights. He believed that kings did not hold absolute power. If a king/queen became a tyrant and violated the people's natural rights, the people have the right to revolt.
Charles Montesquieu believed the sole purpose of government was to maintain law and order, protect political liberty, and protect the property of the people. He argued that a government that would best serve this purpose would be designed to include three branches of government to balance and check power.
The ideas of Thomas Hobbes gave weight to the Enlightenment movement and began the discussion of natural rights. He proposed that people should lay down their natural rights of equality and freedom to give absolute power to the king. His assertion of natural rights led people around the world to question overbearing governments that violated these rights.
The ideas of Jean-Jacques Rousseau were more liberal than any other Enlightenment philosophers. He asserted that all people had natural rights that could never be given up to a king. Rather, people enter a social contract and give up rights to the whole community, which is the sovereign authority. The people then exercise their will by making laws for the public good.
● Explain how these ideas were so revolutionary that it led to the Atlantic Revolutions
The lofty ideas of the Enlightenment became more concrete in the Atlantic World as the people began to question governments that violated natural rights. In the societies of British North America, Haiti, Venezuela, and France, people were willing to fight to protect their rights of life, liberty, and property. These ideas were contributed by Enlightenment philosophers such as Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, Charles Montesquieu, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau. In a time when democracy was considered a dirty word and impractical, people began revolting against their government in hopes of achieving the ideals of liberty and equality put forth by the Enlightenment.
● Choose one of the Atlantic Revolutions and explain how the Enlightenment ideas influenced it using specific examples from the revolution
SHORT notes to start your ideas. Please expand on what I have written below!!!
British North America- colonists fought the British in the American Revolution to break from the tyrannical British king. Colonists were tired of being stripped of their natural rights, liberty, and equality. They achieved equality and liberty by establishing a democracy that would guarantee their rights.
Haiti- largest slave revolt that achieved equality through the abolition of slavery. Liberty was achieved by all gaining freedom while also furthering the strength of the anti-slavery movement around the world.
Venezuela- people were tired of Spanish rule and a society that did not protect their natural rights. They achieved political liberty and economic equality.
France- people began to challenge the absolute power of the king who violated their natural rights and did nothing to guarantee liberty or equality. They achieved liberty after the revolution by establishing the French Constitution that would guarantee natural rights and grant some degree of political liberty.
