(For me, primarily, 1)the pessimism about the natural condiction (but EJ with his "waldgaenger" didn't want to use the same ideolgical bases of liberalism, like Hobbes and Locke' state of nature. EJ wrote about the "urgrund", what has in common with the Hobbesian state of nature only the hard and pessimistic aspect). 2) the teory of the monster-state, the Leviathan (but EJ and Hobbes were on tho different sides about this).) Thanks ------=_NextPart_000_00A8_01C22FFC.6FA5DC00 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content=3D"text/html; charset=3Diso-8859-1" = http-equiv=3DContent-Type> <META content=3D"MSHTML 5.00.2614.3500" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2><EM>What do you think are the = connections between=20 the thinkings of Thomas Hobbes and EJ? </EM></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2><EM></EM></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2><EM>(For me, primarily, 1)the pessimism = about the=20 natural condiction (but EJ with his "waldgaenger" didn't want to use the = same=20 ideolgical bases of liberalism, like Hobbes and Locke' state of = nature.
