This work notes that Hume has demolished the "chimera" of the "Original Contract" in the first section, while the second section sarcastically notes that the choice of the type of titular concept might as well be decided by the neighing of a horse.
In a footnote in this work, the author claims that if we cannot legislatively define murder, then we should burn all our statutes and rely on only Pufendorf and the Bible. This work notes that Hume has demolished the "chimera" of the "Original Contract" in the first section, while the second section sarcastically notes that the choice of the type of titular concept might as well be decided by the neighing of a horse. This work's last section contains an apology for the preceding "logomachy," and argues that a certain thinker has erred in proposing a "Duty of the Supreme Power to Make Laws." The same logic that is used to prove that a certain document is "all-perfect" is shown to equally prove that the same document is "all-foolish" and "all-knavish," in a section of this work entitled "The British Constitution." The first two sections of this work are dedicated to the "Formation" and "Forms" of the title institution, and this work was conceived as a response to ?Blackstone's commentaries on the laws of England. Famous for its opening which states the "fundamental axiom," that "it is the greatest happiness of the greatest number that is the measure of right and wrong," for 10 points, identify this early work of utilitarianism written by Jeremy Bentham.
In a footnote in this work, the author claims that if we cannot legislatively define murder, then we should burn all our statutes and rely on only Pufendorf and the Bible.
