Abstract


Analyzes John Locke's treatment of American subjects, works on the New World, and lndians. Locke's biography offers numerous points of contact with America, and special attention is given to the ideological interest that surrounds his political philosophy, reaching the conclusion that the defence of the English empirist as the first theorist of the origins of the history of anthropology is not justified.
