Locke on Law of Nature and Natural Rights
“though their (State of Nature) be a State of liberty, yet it is not a State of license.”
Locke meant that Men, in the State of Nature, were bound by natural law. Natural laws were recognized by people and they would apply it to themselves – where people recognized and acknowledged each other’s existence, one’s rights and one’s duties towards others.
Natural Rights were meant as an entitlement to an individual under the Natural Law, naturally given to men by God, for their living, their sustenance. Property was such a Right and it included – life, liberty and estates.
