In this video Heimler takes you through Unit Topic 1 of AP Government.
We'll consider the profound impact of Enlightenment thought on the founders of the United States. Chief among these ideas were natural rights (John Locke & Thomas Hobbes), popular sovereignty and the social contract (Jean-Jacques Rousseau), and republican government and the separation of powers (Baron de Montesquieu).
Additionally, we'll consider how these ideas found their way into two of our foundational documents: the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution.
