Abstract

Locke and Rousseau both address the question of how best to educate children, who love both freedom and power, to be free adults who submit only to reason. Contrary to the common view that Rousseau's disagreement with Locke stems from Rousseau's radical understanding of freedom, I argue that the disagreement stems from Rousseau's view, for which he argues convincingly, that Lockean education cannot secure even Lockean freedom. This reconception of Rousseau's disagreement with Locke makes Rousseau difficult to dismiss and leaves us at an impasse with respect to the question of how to educate for liberty.
