Hello, I'm Jaime. Today it's my turn to do the review of the class. So, Come on.
At the begining we saw a video about Enlightned thinkers. This talked about philosophers who wanted to illuminate the darkness of the world with the light of reason. One example of this was the challenge sent by the philosopher Immanuel Kant.
Jean Rond D'Alembert and Denis Diderot developed the yearning to know and created the encyclopedia. The first edition was published in 1751.
The thoughts of the Enlightenment was divided in:
-Political Thought:
- Rousseau
- Voltaire
- Montesquieu
- Fisiocrats ( Quesnay)
- Economic Liberalism (Adam Smith)
- Jean Jacques Rousseau developed two ideas
- Social contract
- General will
- Montesquieu defended the division of powers to prevent abuse
- Executive Power ( Government)
- Legislative Power ( Make the laws)
- Judiciary ( Make to keep the laws )
- Voltaire defended the necessity of the parliament to limit the power of king
- Fisiocrats made the agriculture the most important activity of the period
- Adam Smith was the person who started the Economic Liberalism.
After the video, we did a review of the last class. Then Paqui explained the Enlightened Depotism and the Independence of U.S.A. with a scheme in the digital and blackboard
