I have to write a poli theory paper defending one argument from another... Except I believe that both are fundamentally flawed.
As far as I'm concerned the Rousseau-ian sense of the "general will" is idealist bullshit and that therefore everything that comes from this "general will" is legitimate; but I also don't believe, as according to Locke, we are born invested with natural rights that cannot be constrained by the state.

However, once again, as with my other paper, I'm left with having to find some alternative source of legitimacy for political authority; and I'm at a loss.


It is going to be a fun day with lots of migraines.
