Prehistoric Myths in Modern Political Philosophy: Challenging Stone Age Stories
Widerquist, Karl (Professor in Political Theory, Georgetown University)
The state of nature, the origin of property, the origin of government, the primordial nature of inequality and war – why do political philosophers talk so much about the Stone Age? Widerquist and McCall draw on archaeology and anthropology to show that much of what we think we know about human origins comes from philosophers’ imaginations.
