As I prepare to write a post concerning Western civilization, I stop to ask myself a few questions, find your personal answers if you wish, this will likely come up in my next or previous post and might interest you further.
Constitutionalism - Louis XIV
(early - mid 17th century Europe)
What was good about the ideas of constitutionalism that would be useful if transferred to today's way of thought?
What was Thomas Hobbs (the originator of absolutism) wrong about? What could he have been right about had he not been so set in his ways?
What is Mercantilism, why do we still see it today?
Was Louis XIV a good ruler in any way?
