Practically parallel with the расцвет of colonial policy, from the beginning of the XVII-th century by European philosophers (one of their significant members was John Locke) was formed the complete integral world view that later got a name of liberal. As we perfectly know that theories now form a basis for modern right, including international right having inter-social meaning. Social contract theory. According to Locke natural being condition is a being of absolute freedom and equality with a order of private property and private life. It’s a being of peace and kindness. The law of nature prescribes peace and safety. Natural right – a right on private property; a right on free actions, your personal labour and its’ results. An adherent of constitutional monarchy, Locke anticipated Russos’ social contract theory and an idea of citizens’ right to refuse from obeying power if it doesn’t follow laws. Locke – a theoretic of civil society and law-based state of democratic rights for Kings and Lords law accountability. According to his ideas Government is created to guarantee natural rights (freedom, equality, property) and laws (peace and security), government can’t take away these rights and should be organized in a way to guarantee natural rights confidently. Locke was confident in a legacy of citizens’ rebellion against tyrannical power infringing on natural rights and freedoms of people. Locke was sure that people in any case behave in a right way, ‘cause it’s natural for разумных human beings. That’s why social contract for him is a natural process without any alternatives. Colonial project. Speaking about the so called Colonial project, John Locke produced a thesis, according to it lands of the American continent populated with the Reds that couldn’t rationally manage with these lands, where morally and juridical free to be assumed by Europeans. This idea was clearly mentioned by Locke in his labor “Two tractates about ruling” and later was developed by Switzerland’s scientist and diplomat A. de Wattyl in his labor “A right of peoples”. In a principal question if there is possible for a nation to occupy a part of a vast country in a legal way in case when only nomadic nations that can’t occupy the whole country because their quantity, live there – Locke answers that these nomadic nations couldn’t assign to themselves more land than is possible to cultivate, more land than they really need and can populate. Their unstable occupying of vast territories can’t be considered as legal and original prospering; and Europeans that where too much стеснённые at their native lands just discover new space to live and cultivate. Concerning to Locks’ opinion savagedom there hadn’t got any special needs, besides they hadn’t use territories constantly – that’s the reason why Europeans could absolutely legally capture such lands and establish colonies there, it’s a rather natural process… Lockes’ ideas nowadays. John Lockes’ views and concepts are still actual today – modern scientists and politicians build their doctrines on its base, besides we can notice applying of Lockes’ principles during real historical practice and nature of law. My personal opinion is that the reason for it – Locke catched some roots of natural rights that are universal and rational for population of the whole world and brought it to live with the help of his labors… At the same time natural rights principles existing apriori where fixed in a so called positive right, it means in law and court practice.
