What Can We Learned:
The Glorious Revolution happened because the Catholic
King James II took advantage of his power and didn't listen to
the Parliament. He persecuted the Protestants after they
disagree with his Catholic beliefs. His action triggered the long
lasting conflict between the two church, which was the
Catholic and the Protestant.
How We Can Adapt to Our life:
As the world is now more open, there is diversity in the
society. People have different thoughts, beliefs, religions,
nationality, and culture. For the world to remain peace, we
should not discriminate or criticize the people who are not the
same with you. We should respect their rights so that there will
be no conflicts between different groups of people.

Who Was He?
Niccolo Machiavelli was an Italian political advisor,
writer, poet, diplomat and theorist
His Life:
He was an apprentice to a chancellery of the
Florentine Republic. He was a diplomat in the period
when Florence's ruling Medici family lost its power. He
served in that position for 14 years, in which he was
gone to numerous time of diplomatic missions. When
the Medici came back to its power, Machiavelli was
imprisoned, tortured, and banished from Florence.
Later, he was called back to a duty in the government.
But when the Medici was overthrown and the Republic
gained its power, he was exiled again until his last day.

THE PRINCE
Machiavelli wrote The Prince in order to gain favor of
Lorenzo de' Medici, the head of Medici and the ruler
of Florence back then. It was about autocratic and
monarchical forms of government, a practical guide for
princes on how to rule. He suggested that it is better to be
feared than loved
The Prince
THE DISCOURSES ON LIVY
In this work, it was said that Machiavelli expressed
his real Republic beliefs. He focused on the structure,
nature and evolution of republics. The Discourses is much
longer than The Prince and covers nearly all the major
subjects of political science. Machiavelli expressed little
trust in the people, he argued that the people are wiser
than princes, though leadership is still required.

philosopher, and composer. He was one of the
most influential thinkers during the Enlightenment.

He left Geneva in 1728 and move to Annecy,
where he met Louise de Warens. They developed
a romantic relationship for a while. He later gave
up Genevan citizenship to convert to Catholicism.

composer. He presented his new system of
numbered musical notation but it was rejected
even though it was ingenious and compatible with

THE DISCOURSES OF ARTS AND SCIENCE
This discourses was a response to the Academy of
Dijon’s essay contest. The question was “Has the
restoration of the sciences and arts tended to purify
morals?” Rousseau answered that the arts and sciences
had corrupted human morality because they were not
human needs, but were rather the result of pride and
vanity. The work brought him significant respect and fame
as he won the Academy's Prize.
THE SOCIAL CONTRACT
Rousseau seek to solve the problem posed by the
sentence "Man is born free; and everywhere he is in
chains." In this work, he proposed that people gave up
their freedom to obey the rule conducted by the “general
will” of the whole society. He believed that people can live
in peace without the government.

How people in history from different time period
are related?

Both Machiavelli and Rousseau had a lot of
influences to the people in their own time, and their
ideas are still talked about in the modern world. Though
they were in a different time frame, it seems like
Machiavelli and Rousseau were on the opposite side.
They had different political views as their opinion
toward government were very distinct from one
another. Machiavelli viewed human nature as self
centered, and greedy. They are irrational, and easily
gets manipulated. So his ideal leader is the one who
can control his people, and at the same time, is able to
protect the state. On the other hand, Rousseau viewed
human nature as good when in a state of nature, but is
corrupted by the society. He believed that human can
change over time depends on their surroundings. So
his suggestion is that humans don't need government
as they can come up with morals by them selves, and
the government will only make it worse.

Hedonic Calculus is a process used to
determine how people make decisions.
How is it related to Scientific Methods?
It was invented by Jeremy Bentham,
who used scientific methods as his guide to
create this formula. He did an experiment to
test his hypothesis and come up with a
theory. He proposed that the right action of
each people is based on the decision which
give them more pleasure and less pain.

should be feared, rather than loved because good
