Abstract

In this paper I address Locke ?s educational thought from an unusual perspective, namely, its relation to the Lockean theory of property. As shown here, Locke discriminates between the education of proprietors and non-proprietors. The former aims to promote some moral values intimately connected with private property, such as liberality and justice. On the other hand, the latter is reduced to the cultivation of industriousness, a moral virtue which will enable poor children to become proprietors in the future.
